This could be useful for randomising sets, while keeping the sets ordered.
For example, randomise the samples identified by their ID in column B, while
keeping "Set 1", "Set 2", "Set 3" ordered in Column A.

I guess Rafael means something like sampling the values without redraw in a
range of cells, which I think should be separate form the Sort dialog as it is
not per se done in a row or column direction. We can already do something
similar with Data > Statistics > Sampling.

Thanks, Quikee! As I understand it, this covers the second part of what Rafael
mentioned (cell range shuffling), but does not integrate it into the Sort
dialog to offer the sort + randomise option, right?
