Empty cell sorting order

See original GitHub issue

It would be nice if empty cells always sorted to the bottom, like this. Or add options emptyToBottom and emptyToTop

I think that would be unexpected and surprising behaviour. I don’t think sorting works like this almost anywhere else; eg, in desktop spreadsheets. “Sorting the same thing in reverse order” should produce “exactly the same result, but with the order reversed”; not “exactly the same result, but with the order reversed, except for empty or null values which stay where they were”.

Really missing this option. And it’s impossible to implement that through sorting methods without hacking of the package itself which really makes me sad 😦
