Thanks for the patch!

Then, please refrain from setting alist in this patch and add it later,
when testing the relevant methods.

Right. When sort function is not set agenda specifically (but not other
users of org-tags-sort-function) falls back to alphabetical sorting.

In fact, the docstring does not at all mention that
`org-tags-sort-function' is honored at all:

  (defcustom org-agenda-sorting-strategy ...
    ...
    tag-up             Sort alphabetically by last tag, A-Z.
    tag-down           Sort alphabetically by last tag, Z-A.

We need to fix this docstring documenting `org-tags-sort-function', I think. 

> +           ((or 'nil 'org-string<)

> +            "tag_b_2\ntag_b_1\ntag_a_2\ntag_a_1\nlonely\ngroupless\ngroup_a\n"))))))))

Nitpick: it would be more readable to use `string-join' here as well.
