Coming back to MB after a long time away (v2.1), I find many exciting new features to fiddle with. Lovely!
What I tried to do is use the new Artwork view and group by album artists so that when I click the artist's image I get a list of albums sorted by their release date in reverse: Newer albums on the left, older ones off to the right. Setting a custom search order is easy enough.
Unfortunately, it seems like the sort order option is completely grayed-out. It is also grayed-out in all other artists grouping options.
The custom sort order works just fine when I group the view by Album.
