Unfortunately though, 2.5 won't actually enable you to sort on Entry Type, even if you add it as a column.

Answers.Text: Just found this: https://straightupcraft.com/craft-plugins/entry-type-sources, which appears to do exactly what the OP is asking for. Haven't tested it with 2.5, so a word of caution as that update makes some significant changes to Element Index related APIs.
