It seems like the dialogue attaching files to emails in Chrome, which I assume is Finder-based, always sorts files by kind (folders, then documents, then images, then pdfs, etc). This sorting takes precedence over the sorting by date that I set for the folder. When I'm trying to attach some pdf I just downloaded, this is incredibly annoying, because I have to scroll through all the folders, images, and documents in my Downloads folder to get there, while if I could truly sort by date, it would be at the very top.
How can I simply sort by date, and prioritize that over anything else?

Have you tried this icon on the top left side of the attachment popup?
This preference is saved for some time, long enough for you to not get frustrated.
