Hello,

I posted this StackOverflow question 
<https://stackoverflow.com/q/76425892/67579>, and @Willem Van Onsem 
<https://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=!closed&reporter=KommuSoft> tried 
to help by opening a ticket numbered #34646 
<https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/34646>, and creating a patch for 
supporting the order by multiple fields in admin.display decorator.

But it got closed as a duplicate of #31975 
<https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/31975> which was reported about 3 
years ago, and it got closed as wontfix by @Mariusz Felisiak 
<https://github.com/felixxm> because he said: *"We don't want to add 
unnecessary complexity to the API.".*

And I agree with what @Petr Dlouhý 
<https://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=!closed&reporter=PetrDlouhy>
 says: *"it is small modification of Django code and small increase in API 
complexity (which is consistent with the logic of other order fields, 
BTW)."**.*

The inconsistency is when somewhere we're able to order by multiple fields, 
and somewhere else we can't.

If we can order by multiple fields in the modelAdmin classes, why can't we 
do so in the admin.display decorator?

So, I do hope to reconsider implementing the patch 
<https://code.djangoproject.com/attachment/ticket/34646/django_ordering.py.diff>
 that @Willem Van Onsem 
<https://code.djangoproject.com/query?status=!closed&reporter=KommuSoft>
 created.

Thanks
