Description
In my table I have values like: 'test1', 'test2', 'test111' and so on, and need to sort them. ORDER BY statement sorts them "wrongly" as strings:
'test2' > 'test4' - false but 'test4' > 'test12' - true.
I can sort this values manually, using list and custom cmp function, but in this situation my sort function will return list instead of QuerySet object, that I need for my ModelChoiceField.
Is there any way to sort QuerySet items as list? (list.sort(cmp=...))
Thanks.
