Hello,

In Calc, you can go to Data -> Sort, and choose to copy the sorted
results to someplace else, rather than the default option of sorting in
place.

I'm just wondering if anyone would miss this feature if it got removed.

The UI is a bit awkward, and not clear what the associated two fields
(left drop-down and right input fields) are supposed to take.

Also, handling this option internally would require quite some extra
effort, which, when one is trying to fix issues associted with this,
would pose a greater risk of breaking things.

Any objections for removing this?

Kohei

Could we (well, huh, you ?) just copy the data first, then sort them in-place ? It will preserve the feature without causing effort to maintain. And we may even soften the UI by adding some labels to boxes.

My 2 cents
