 Create a blog. Add some pics to it. Click "Add Media" link in the edit
 post screen itself and select the gallery and chose default sort order as
 "Date/ Time". Code will be generated as something like this
 [gallery link="file" columns="5" orderby="ID"]. Pay attention to orderby
 value!

 This has been present for almost an year (see
 [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-gallery-feedback?replies=6])
 - I guess this was pre 2.9.2 version.

 Partly a miss from my side also, because I raised it in this support forum
 but never thought of raising it in the bug tracking system (until today)!

 In the WP codex also I am not able to spot the code that does the order by
 date. Simply using [gallery orderby="Date" ...] does not work either!
