I think the sorting issues in PR#2607 have been resolved, but I do have
a very similiar issue: sorting appears to be text based, even for
numeric fields.  So, for example after sorting the food stock column,
you can easily have:

124/130
47/50
5/20
64/80

The simplest solution I can think of is padding short numbers with
spaces, so the output becomes:

  5/20
 47/50
 64/80
124/130

This also would have the side benefit of improving the appearance.
