Topic: Sorting on a composite param

Hello All,

Can you do a sort on a composite param? e.g. [baseurl]/Observation?_sort=combo-code-value-concept

From what I gather in http://build.fhir.org/search.html#_sort, I'm assuming the answer is yes.

If yes, then I'm not sure what the exact behavior would be. Assuming a query of [baseurl]/Observation?_sort=combo-code-value-concept, would the sorting algorithm first do the sort on the first composite component, then the second?

Still undefined, as are several other parts of search, like https://chat.fhir.org/#narrow/stream/4-implementers/subject/Sorting.20of.20parameters.20with.200.2E.2E*.20cardinality.
