Task List sort by Greenhopper rank in Mylyn JIRA connector, please

Question

I would like to see my JIRA tasks in the rank order defined in Greenhopper. Rank is a sort by option in the Task List Sorting dialog, but it doesn't have an affect on the list.

JIRA 4.4.1

GreenHopper 5.7.4

Atlassian JIRA Connector 3.0.0.v20110210

Eclipse Indigo

Can we please get an update on this? We're re-evaluating project management tools at our shop and this issue could be a deal-breaker.

It's a big deal. I need to be able to tell programmers, "Open mylyn and work on the issues in order." If I have to tell them to keep Jira open in another window, because they can't trust the order in Mylyn, that sucks.

It looks like a bug. I'm not sure if this is Atlassian Connector issue or maybe there is a problem on the Mylyn side. I have created an issue to track it: https://studio.atlassian.com/browse/PLE-1344
