I think there are two considerations here:

First, is this something we want to have? Is this generally useful?
There's still the issue of From: and Subject: needing more heuristic for
useful sorting that I mentioned in id:87efrm70ai.fsf@nikula.org.

Second, if we decide we want this, IMHO the interfaces (both human and
the lib) need to split the sort key and sort order from the
start. Fixing it later on is not going to be fun.
