I wasn't complaining, it was just a comment.

But see the attachment, where "G" and "P" both come before "C". And there
are no leading spaces or non-printable characters.

WHAT are you saying, exactly?

The CoA is a TREE structure. The accounts at the same level of the tree
should be sorted in alpha-meric order. The sibling accounts (children of the
same parent account) should also be sorted that way AMONG THEMSELVES (but
not sorted that way with respect to children of different parents)

You aren't seeing the ultimate top level parent (aka "root") but "top level"
accounts like "asset", "liability", "equity", "income", "expense",
"Imbalance" are its children and so appear in sorted order. 
In other words, they are siblings at the highest level.
