I do not know what what be the exact use case to sort a binary field. But I just do not want user to select a binary field to sort and get an exception. I think we can support it, and let user decide whether sort binary is useful or not. If we do not support it, then we need to add a frontend logic to disallow user selecting field in binary type.
