I finally had a chance to play with this -- works nicely, except I managed to
get emacs into an infinite loop this way:
1. C-c ^ f org-sort-list-by-checkbox-type
2. This puts the done items at the top, which I didn't want, so... C-c ^ F org-
sort-list-by-checkbox-type.
3. Emacs goes into a tailspin (recovered by C-g).

I disagree. I'd suggest unchecked - transitionary - checked - no box. It makes
more sense to pull the not-done items to the top, no?
But it's easy to modify the function for my environment. Thanks!!
