Description

Hi all!

I searched through documentation and code and didn't find a way to sort the records by a relation field.

This is related to #265.

There is someone working on it? If not, I'd be happy to provide PR.

Research direction

Start by reviewing related issue #265 and the existing documentation and code paths for record sorting. Identify how relation fields are currently handled and what behavior is expected; done should mean records can be sorted by a relation field with the behavior documented or covered by the project’s existing checks.
