--- Comment #7 from chris.siller at gmail.com ---
I don't agree with Heiko about this being a duplicate - the linked
bug/enhancement wants to sort the sequence of INDEX ENTRIES (that are made from
Headings) alphabetically, while leaving the actual document flow untouched.

I am suggesting to add the ability to sort the sequence of the HEADINGS
THEMSELVES in the document flow (not their index entries, as requested in the
other bug).

In short, my suggestion is:

add a “Sort A→Z” button to the navigator, allowing people to arrange headings
of a specific hierarchy level in alphabetical order. Ideally, this would be
possible over multiple hierarchy levels (e.g. sort only headings 2, OR sort
first heading 1 items alphabetcially, then underneath each heading 1, sort all
headings 2 alphabetically).

Alternatively, the same functionality could be achieved by extending the
existing Tools-Sort menu item to allow user to sort alphabetically by
headings-paragraph style (while bringing along any lower-level text like
text-body etc).

For an example when/how this would be useful, see attached file.
