Heh, thank. That is exactly my current solution. I am wondering if there could be a new filter (or option) in the "nsort" family of filters which would ignore any non-number characters. I looked at the Javascript functions in sort.js and the sortTIddlers function in wiki.js for a clue but I need to study that a bit more to understand how sorting works.
My initial thought would be to use Javascript's String.replace() to remove any non-numeric characters from the titles and then pass them on to nsort. Thanks.
