By jashkenas:

Thinking about this a bit more (as I'd rather not expand the API for comparators), perhaps this should be viewed as a breaking change with a bit of backwards compatibility, instead of a feature enhancement.

When upgrading, would you want to change your bound comparators to use the `sort` API, or do you prefer `sortBy` for this sort of thing?
