What about letting one sort an existing cursor? Would that work? Then
you could do a search on word indexed fields, and then once you have
them have Valentina do a sort on any field, case-insensitive.

We've talked about having Valentina sort an existing cursor before --
maybe this is a good reason to allow it?
