Comment:
Ordering by a many-to-many field doesn't make any sense, since an ordering
on the individual rows in the m2m table doesn't map to a natural ordering
comparing sets of m2m results on the parent model.
get_count() strips any ordering, since it doesn't need it to count the
items. I don't think this is worth changing because of the above
paragraph.
