_Update_ There is now a script which does this: [Button: Random Shuffle](https://resource.dopus.com/t/button-random-shuffle/23261/1)

1. You would need a script to randomise the sort. (A script could also do it via a column with random sort-as values, although using Manual Sort is possibly cleaner. A script is required in either case.

2. The sort order is stored as NTFS metadata.
