Description

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

I use tables to manage a member list, and I would like to see the anniversary list sorted by date. The only possibility right now is to sort by date, including the year.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to sort by date, excluding the year to get a good birthday list.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

For example (YYYY-MM-DD) 2001-05-19 and 2002-01-14 should sort this way
2002-01-14
2001-05-19
and not this way
2001-05-19
2002-01-14

Research direction

Start by locating the table view's date-sorting entry point and reproduce the issue with 2001-05-19 and 2002-01-14. The work is done when sorting anniversary dates compares month and day while ignoring the year, without changing ordinary date sorting.
