To create a "breadcrumb" style title using subcategories you can use the following code:
<MTHasParentCategory>
<MTParentCategories exclude_current="1">
<a href="<$MTCategoryArchiveLink$>"><$MTCategoryLabel$></a>
</MTParentCategories> »
</MTHasParentCategory>
<$MTArchiveTitle$>

There's a bug in the way categories sort, although I can't find the bug report page (I can find the bug report page for 3.3, but not for 4.)
In the MT Admin Interface categories sort in a case insensitive way. When output to template, the categories sort in a case sensitive way.
This means, that if this is what I see in my interace: Animal Bumble Bee cat Dog emu Frog
when I output a list of categories (in my case using ) I get:
Animal Bumble Bee Dog Frog cat emu
