In docstring of `org-sort-entries' it's told

"The command prompts for the sorting type unless it has been given to the
function through the SORTING-TYPE argument, which needs to be a character,
\(?n ?N ?a ?A ?t ?T ?s ?S ?d ?D ?p ?P ?o ?O ?r ?R ?f ?F)."

Suggest to extend it somehow like that way

"... through the SORTING-TYPE argument, resp. customized `sorting-type',..."


Which means `sorting-type' would need a defcustom.

Thus the user isn't prompted every time any more.

Thanks,

Andreas

FWIW, I don't think this is necessary. If one needs a single sorting
type only, it is very easy to define a wrapper around `org-sort-entries'
and use that function instead.
