Just letting you know that I've implemented value< and sort in the
emacs-30 branch of Compat. It works well so far, but value< is not yet
completely implemented. See the following commit:
https://github.com/emacs-compat/compat/commit/8190769d9eb9258dd8361bd322d90228dc586770
There is one thing I'd like to ask about value<. Would it make sense to
support comparing mixed types, e.g., numbers and markers or strings and
symbols? In particular I often like to mix numbers and markers, in
particular in cases where we can avoid creating a marker for performance
reasons if the pure position is sufficient and the location doesn't
change due to edits.
Daniel
