I just filed a duplicate to 102626 which touches the sorting aspect.

Another aspect is copying ranges.

If one selects a range to copy, it would be more intuitive if the focus were put
at top left of the range.
This way, to move to the destination, one could readily use the keyboard arrow
instead of the mouse, moving in the same column (or row).
This frequently would be much faster.

An example is copying a range of one row (or column) to multiple rows (or 
columns).
(Something which I often do in setting up a new spreadsheet table.)

*I would differ somewhat in the proposed solution*

Putting the focus at "top/left" seems better than at the "initial position" when
defining a range, since intuitively one conceptualises a range from top/left to
bottom/right, even if one defines it by moving from another corner of the range.
(Note that other comments indicate that this is how both Ms-Excel + Quatro-Pro
work.)

In sum, putting the focus of a range of cells at top/left rather than the last
corner defined would definitely enhance usability.
