That's documented in mutt's NEWS.Debian:
mutt (1.5.22-1) unstable; urgency=low

  The sidebar-dotted patch was replaced by the sidebar-dotpathsep patch from
  Gentoo. This new version drops the "sidebar_shortpath" option from the
  configuration. You can configure the behaviour with the
  "sidebar_delim_chars" option now.

Only a sub-patch was replaced with a (IMHO) superior version.
Can you provide a screenshot of what you mean by "random"?
sidebar_delim_chars is set to './' by default, so it should behave 
exactly as the old sidebar_shortpath patch, striping everything before 
the last dot or slash, leaving the rest to sidebar_sort to be sorted.

Evgeni
