Not really acceptable for me, unfortunately -- or at least I guess
so. What would the speed penalty be if I'd sort everything on the
Lisp side?

I don't have an immediate need for floats as sort
While we're at it, I remember running into a similar problem
with float slots.
Are there any hidden difficulties in implementing float sort

That would be a good start.
I can sort out the obj
