I changed the bug status in NeedInfo, because it seems there is a
misunderstanding that only you can clarify.
You know that, before working inside a spreadsheet, a sort is a logical
operation, an algorithm, that follows rules. By applying these rules to the
rows of a bank account, you may discover that sorting by the Date column is
different than sorting so that the Balance column balances.

If you want to sort rows so that the amounts in the Balance column can be
incremented by the Amount column, the algorithm puts the rows in exactly the
reverse order of how they were in your CSV. However, when sorting by date, not
all rows will go in the reverse order: rows with the same date, using a stable
sort, must not be swapped places with each other. 

So it is essential, before speaking about row alignments, that you tell us
which of the two sorting you want to obtain.
