Comment:

 The problem is that this is mostly unsolvable. If you have objects TM1 and
 TM2, where TM1 has related model with field values 1 and 3, and TM2 has
 related model with field value 2, then what is the correct sort order
 assuming you can return just one TM1 and one TM2 object?

 This is already documented:
 https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#order-by

 I am reclosing this as wontfix. If you want to further discuss this then
 django-users (or django-developers) mailing list is the right forum.
