Yes indeed.
But that doesn't provide a sorting fix for the user who isn't aware of that format and who still has many different styles of formats in his log directory or uses a different format than another user.
So,

Most programmers should be aware of the iso date format (8601).
This isn't an answer or solution to how to implement an alternative sorting in the program itself.
Bottom line is that naming the folders in a good way is the job for the user, not for the program. So, Plus! can't do anything about that, except for providing the user with the ability to name the folder however he/she wants. And that is what Plus! does via the registry options.
Conclussion: The solution isn't to alter the sorting method, the solution is to alter the naming of the folders.
Plus! could sort folders in the Event Viewer based upon their naming like suggested by skorpan. But this will not be a good solution/feature at all because of what is said
here.
The only proper solution is for yourself to (re)name your folders in such a way that they are sorted the way you want using the alphabetic sorting order (indeed like using the international date format).
