Description
I'd like to see jQuery Expressions with sorting support. XPath can't sort a resultset, so it has to be a custom expression. Something like:
p_array = $("p/sort(@id)").get() to put all P elements in an array, sorted by their id (so actually, you should also specify whether to sort alphabetically or numerical etc).
The new .sort method discussed on the mailing lists could do this, you just need to provide a custom function to sort by id.
