Tobias, thanks for the feedback.  Indeed I cannot quite do as you
suggest, as I'm iterating over a raw object{}, not an Array(), thus I
can't sort the obj in advance.

You can represent order and key/val relationship with a
more complex data structure.  I do this all the time.
Stuff each key/val pair of your object into an array,
then use your custom sort function to compare the values of
each object in the array (http://tobiah.org/foo.html).

<script>
var ob = {
        'dog': 'canine',
        'cow': 'bovine',
        'horse': 'equestrian',
        'cat': 'feline'
}
console.log(ob_sorter(ob));

function ob_sorter(ob){

        var holder = [];
for(var x in ob){
                holder.push({key: x, val: ob[x]});
        }

        holder.sort(val_sort);

        return holder
}
function val_sort(left, right){
        return left.val > right.val
}
</script>


Then you can utilize the sorted pairs in a slightly different way:

<span ng-repeat='pair in my_ob'>

{{pair.key}}{{pair.val}} or whatever you wanted to do with them.

</span>

If you want to sort by keys, just use left.key > right.key in the val_sort().
