Maybe, it would be clearer to call it scheduled-up/scheduled-down,
because there are several different dates used.

As far as I understand, items are already sorted by date as a
fallback, i.e. it cannot be selected in the 'customize-variable' of
'org-agenda-sorting-strategy', but it is done anyway as a last rule.
However, the date used is not the SCHEDULED date but in repeated items
it is the last date in the past that one would get by incrementing the
SCHEDULED date by multiples of the interval set (e.g. .+1w), which I
find a not very useful behavior.

If you could implement a scheduled-up/scheduled-down to override this
behavior, that would be great.

Best wishes,

Josef.
