Sorting files by sync status / confusion about syncing status and icons on files

Is it possible to sort files by sync status?

Super User II

Has the file been updated locally since it was uploaded to Dropbox? I.e. Dropbox is syncing a change OR is the file open?

No, the file hasn't been opened locally or updated recently. It is part of a very large group of folders and files being synced to DropBox.
