Editor function to alphabetically sort all source or target segments in a file

Last week I needed to sort the segments in a very large file to check if any duplicates were created in the target language for different source segments. It would also have been a great way to check consistency in this long lists of compound technical terms. So sorting, like in Excel, is a function I'd really welcome in Studio 2017 (or in an app for Studio).

The Advanced Display Filter in Studio 2017 supports regular expressions. Would it therefore be possible to use a regex to do this already?

By the way, the Advanced Display Filter has filters for duplicates (Repetitions) too.

memoQ has this feature, as I have heard, and if Studio had it it would be great. There are numerous situations, in which sorting of segments (like in Passolo) would be helpful. Please consider introducing this feature.
