Comment (by Tobias Krönke):

 I would like to note, that `ST_Area` also works, although Django denies
 its execution:

 {{{
 Region.objects.order_by(RawSQL('ST_Area(polygon)', params=[]))
 <QuerySet [<Region: Region object (1)>, '...(remaining elements
 truncated)...']>
 }}}

 in contrast that errors with contributed `Area`:

 {{{
 from django.contrib.gis.db.models.functions import Area
 Region.objects.order_by(Area('polygon'))
 ...
 django.db.utils.NotSupportedError: Area on geodetic coordinate systems not
 supported.
 }}}
