Sure, we don't assume that. However, we do assume that you're not using models for massive sorting either. It's not their purpose to support that, and PropertyModels in particular are written as convenience over the cost of a slight performance penalty. That penalty gets big with sufficient large data sets, but it is unrealistic to have such large datasets in the first place (because that won't render in browsers, and will be seriously bad for you bandwidth usage).
