It's kinda already there?

- ( ) test
- (x) test
- (-) test
- (x) test
- ( ) test
- (_) test
- (=) test

:sort turns it into

- ( ) test
- ( ) test
- (-) test
- (=) test
- (_) test
- (x) test
- (x) test

Order is: not started, started, on pause, cancelled, done.

@Anrock, not exactly, it works fine for homo-intended tasks, but it will completely mess with the subtasks, a proper sorting requires to implement the logic to to take this into account

- ( ) task1
-- (x) sub1
-- (-) sub2
-- ( ) sub3
- (x) task2
- ( ) task3
- (_) task4
- (=) task5
- (x) task6
-- (x) sub7
-- (x) sub8

to

- ( ) task1
-- ( ) sub3
-- (-) sub2
-- (x) sub1
- ( ) task3
- (_) task4
- (=) task5
- (x) task2
- (x) task6
-- (x) sub7
-- (x) sub8

The first impression is :

• if it has subtasks and any of them is undone, just sort the subtask
• if it has subtasks and all are done, move the whole task and its subtasks down
• no subtask -> regular sorting

The main idea is too keep undone tasks on top

Ah, indeed. I totally forgot about subitems
