Dear GNU
I suggest that we add a new flag to Sort, to skip certain number of lines
from the sorting and copy them verbatim to the output,

for example

cat temp
10
8
1
2
3
4
5
> sort -z2 temp
10
8
5
4
3
2
1

In this example, the parameter "z" tell the app to ignore first two lines
and copy them as is.
naturally this can be done with a combination of Sort and Head, but it is
obvious it should be part of the tool.
