<!-- Answer --> There are no plans or documentation indicating that the custom SQL sorting function will be removed or refactored. Superset now enforces a structured sorting format in the backend, so freeform SQL in the sort field is not supported. Recent changes have actually improved frontend support for sorting by custom SQL columns (see [PR #30393](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/30393)), but the backend expects sorting to be defined as a list of (column, direction) pairs, not raw SQL strings ([schema reference](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/charts/schemas.py)). There is no official documentation or roadmap about future changes to this feature. The current behavior is considered settled. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
