Consider the source.

The trouble is Chris wants the icons, he just doesn't want to 1) wait  
for the file info to transfer 2) use smaller folders 3) use column view.

See, he wants the benefit of all the metadata (He even mentioned  
sorting by labels) without actually transferring the metadata  
information.

And this is why in list view it needs all the metadata, because you  
chose your sort criteria in the list view.  the only way it can sort  
the list correctly is to examine every element of the list.

In short, it's not a bug in the finder, it's a PEBKAC issue.
