I ran into this behavior while sorting table lines but it may happen
elsewhere too. In a nutshell, I'd like to alphabetical-sort (C-c ^ a)
| alpha |
| [[file:beta][beta]] |
| gamma |
into the order shown, but currently the "beta" line sorts less than
"alpha". I can't claim it's a bug--the behavior is
understandable--but perhaps the sort function can be enhanced to only
look at the link description, if present.

This does make sense. However, I am planning to rewrite the sorting
part for table anyway, making use of the sorting function John
has recently introduced into Org-mode. So this is now on my list,
put probably not yet for the next release.
Thanks.
