Sounds very useful, esp. if the sorting is done over ALL lines of the file
listing. My suggestion requires that all the lines be gathered into a single
table or into a virtual or real file before sorting is started. Maybe V10
could finally incorporate such a feature, which I requested many years ago.
IMHO the subsorting of entries within each directory independently is not
really useful in most situations where multiple directories are searched.
