Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I use "sorting with lastname" ("Sortieren mit Nachnamen") and see the contacts of my family members unsorted (because of the same lastname).

I have for example items like this:

  • MyName, Conrad
  • MyName, Andy
  • MyName, Lisa
  • MyName, Andy

I think the problem is, that "Contacts" only sorts the lastname and ignores the second sortcriteria "first name".

Describe the solution you'd like

Please suggest to add the second sort criteria "first name"

Research direction

Start by reading the Contacts sorting behavior and the RFC6350 SORT-AS requirement described in the issue. Clarify whether the goal is to honor SORT-AS data or add a first-name tie-breaker, then verify the result with representative contacts sharing a last name; the issue names no files or tests.
