Is there a way to sort numeric values in a normal text view without

Now they are sorted like this:
1
12
15
16
19
2
22
23
29
36
36A
4
...
The reason I use tekst field is because sometime I need to use for
instance: 4A or 4B
I would split the numeric and strings parts. ie have a numeric field,
and then an extra field to store your 'modifier' or whatever. Then
sort by numeric_field, string_field
That's an option but I see that more as a workaround.
I also have my classical records in a Base catalog. Many Classical
pieces have Opus number, so I have a field for that. It contains this
content:
op. 14
op. 45
op. 125
and it has the same sorting problem.
One could say leave the 'op.'
but pieces of Bach have BWV instead of op., also you have WoO (Without
opus) and KV & P for other composers.
Splitting them up is an idea I dont like too much....
Isn't it possible for some kind of combinable field String/numeric field.
or a sorting option wich looks for numeric values in a string field, and
threats them as such?
..in future versions?
