Hi
I am using pivots extensively in my search,and they work well for searching and 
displaying. But I find the need to be able to sort by the sum of a certain 
pivot, after it is collapsed.

So if my pivot term is:"student_id,test_grade" 
I'd want to be able to sort on the number of tests a student has taken. and 
also get an average. something like:
 :sort => sum( student_id,test_grade )/ count( student_id,test_grade )

where the values would be summed and counted over all of the entries where 
student_id was the same.

It doesn't seem to be working now, but does seem like a feature people would 
like. Is there any plan to implement it? Or even better a patch that I could 
apply?

thanks in advance
steve
