Orderby hi-jacked to be menu_order

I noticed a conflict with this plugin when I do a post query with a custom orderby, yet this plugin puts menu_order as first priority.

Should it not be the case that the only time you should set the orderby to menu_order is if it hasn’t been previously set? Otherwise custom orderby queries will not work appropriately.

I’ve made a minor change to the post/class.php which does just that. Starting with line 40, notice these difference:

if ( is_admin() && ! isset( $_GET['orderby'] ) ) {
            if ( false === strpos( $orderby, 'menu_order' ) ) {
                $orderby = "$wpdb->posts.menu_order ASC,$orderby";
            }
        }

Doing so fixed my issue. Does this seem like the more logical approach?

I love this plugin and want to continue to use it, but this can make things difficult.
