I'm not a guru. Maybe that's why I don't understand which "sql-like 
sort-by on multiple keys" would produce output that lacks some of the 
input but has additional items. ;)

In other words: why don't you show your concrete program and the input 
and output data to use. Is the data a list of tuples or lists or what?

Cheers,
