I like this in principle, but it results in lots of successive
directory lookups in different directories because it sorts only
across the last component. This can thrash the icache on older
boxes. Maybe we could rig it to sort by full path name so the
successive lookup are grouped by directory? Just reordering the :
operators should do that I think...
