Description Danny B. 2010-02-19 18:12:28 UTC
Displaying of sort key rather than (full)page names for category items would be way so handy in many situations.

One example on behalf of others: Names of people - they are being categorized with key in biographical order, so "Einstein, Albert" instead of "Albert Einstein".

I don't know which approach would be the best, possible approaches are:
* $wgConfigVariable
* user preference
* _MAGICWORD_ for categories where we want such displaying

The latter seems most flexible to me.
