Sort Photos by Edit Time

In the Library Module there is a very useful sort option called Edit Time.

Sorting the grid view by Edit Time will display the thumbnails with the most recent ones at the beginning (top) of the grid.

This is an easy way to select all of the photos that have had any form of editing applied. Note that adding keywords counts as editing.

Sorting by Edit Count is not so useful as it seems to order the images according to how often an edit has been performed on the image.
