I am using planner version 3.41 with muse version 3.11.
I started looking at the sorting functions, since I decided that I
would like tasks on project pages sorted by their date. I found
looking at the documentation string of planner-sort-tasks-by-date that
this is in fact what should be happening by default. However, what is
coded is a sorting that prioritises status first, then date. Looking
at the code also reveals that much of the task info structure is hard
coded into the function, and so does not work in combination with for
example planner-multi if the date link is not the last on the line.
Below is a fix for what I needed. I post this in the hope that others
with more time, will be able to fix the other sort functions in
planner.el in a similar way.

(defun afs-planner-sort-tasks-by-date ()
"Sort tasks by date, status and priority."
(skip-chars-forward "#ABC")
(let* ((info (planner-current-task-info))
(status (string-to-char (planner-task-status info)))
(date (planner-task-date info))
(priority (string-to-char (planner-task-priority info))))
(format "%1c%10s%1c"
(if (or (= status ?X)
(= status ?C))
status ?\ )
(if (null date)
planner-sort-undated-tasks-equivalent

priority)))
(defun afs-planner-sort-tasks-default-key ()
"Provide old sorting behavior.
Day pages sort by status and priority. Plan pages sort by date,
status and priority."
