- Direction (ie: ascending or descending)
- Sort-by-path (eg: item.name, item.name.firstName or item[5])
- Sorting function (returns true if two items are already sorted)
- Type checking
- All constants and support functions are members of the Sort() function
- Testsuite with hooks for cscript and in-browser javascript, so you can tweak and optimize, and make sure it still works
- Environment agnostic (can use with, say, SpiderMonkey or .Net's jsc)
