Currently, when sorting a view based on an Option Set column, the view will sort based on the alphabetical order of the Label of the Option Set Values.
However, there are occasions when the values of an Option Set represent a sequence that have a meaningful order, independent of their alphabetical order. It would be nice to be able to sort a View based on the sort order defined for the option set values themselves, rather than alphabetically based on the label.
The only way to accomplish this today, is to prepend ordering information into the label itself "A - First Item", "B - Second Item", etc. or "01 - First Item", "02 - Second Item", etc. which is not desirable.
