Review Comment:
   This part might be the trick though, I wonder if we can modify the 
`PartitionSortFunction` to return a column, which we could define as a struct 
with partition column names in the standard `sort` case, and just a String in 
the more customizable case.
   
   Actually, I'm wondering if we could make it return a struct in general, or 
something that we could treat as such. For the same reason as I give below with 
wanting to deliver some level of hierarchy. 
   
   I'll have to think on it and tinker.
