Hi,

I recently had the need to use org-sort, and found that sorting on alpha 
does not work as I expected, because the sorting works on the whole 
heading, including the TODO keywords. That may be useful, but I think 
probably in many occasions the alpha-sorting means "sorting on the 
headings without the TODO keywords". So I am suggesting this feature of 
"alpha-sorting sans TODO keywords". Thanks a lot for giving it a thought.

Fixed, thanks.

both alpha and numeric sorting now do ignore the TODO keyword and also
the priority cookie if present.  Thanks for noticing and reporting this.
