Sorting by RSSI means that the devices just around in the treeview
which is painfully annoying.

then we just need to be smart about it. Meaning we only switch positions
if the RSSI value is a big difference. So that close devices don't jump
that much.

It certainly jumps around far too much. It flickers tens of times a
second, switching between a phone and the Mac mini just next to it...

we want to sort by RSSI to list devices in range first. However we
should extend the sorting to always list already known or paired devices
first. This should stop them from moving around.
If it stil jumps too much for you, then we might just improve the
sorting mechanism to be a little bit more resistance for jumping around,
but sorting by type gives us no advantage.
