I'd actually like them to sort by priority, and then alphabetically. I group things together under priorities, with leading descriptors like 'build', 'test', 'research', and I would like these 'sub-headings' to be grouped together within a priority block. It doesn't seem as if it will be that hard to do, after looking at the various sort functions in planner...
