You do know that find-dired runs the shell command asynchronously,
right? If you want it to sort the output, it will have to be run
synchronously, in order to have the entire list of files before
sorting them, which means the user (you) will have to wait for all the
files to be read and processed, before seeing any output. Is that a
good idea?
