JSON keys are sorted in wrong order

[danieltian]

The following JSON:

{
    "abc": "123",
    "abc_def": "123",
    "abc_def_ghi": "123"
}

is sorted to:

{
    "abc_def_ghi": "123"
    "abc_def": "123",
    "abc": "123"
}

It should be sorted to the first version.

I investigated this a little, it seems like there's an issue with the double quote and localeCompare. This sorts properly:

a
a_b
a_b_c

So does this:

"a
"a_b
"a_b_c

But once you enclose it in quotes, it sorts wrong:

"a_b_c"
"a_b"
"a"

It seems like it's related to locale. If you use:

a.localeCompare(b, 'en-US', { ignorePunctuation: true })

then it sorts properly. Strangely, it seems like the locale doesn't actually matter, as long as you provide a string:

a.localeCompare(b, 'testing', { ignorePunctuation: true })

I'm seeing something similar in CSS/SCSS files. Any hyphenated keys are sorted before the original, so "border-radius" is placed before "border".

Reproduced by entering the following (in any order) in a css file and sorting via F5:

border-radius: 5px;
border-width: 2px;
border: 1px;

They're sorted into the above order, which isn't incorrect.

This looks like it'll be fixed by #36.

This was fixed with the addition of natural sort.
