Should/could a new term field be made available for sorting?

I have a term that represents an article issue number, Issue #1, Issue #2, Issue #3 .. Issue #100 etc, which by default, is ordered:

  • Issue #1
  • Issue #100
  • Issue #2
  • Issue #3
  • Issue .. etc

(a) The in-built term weight is limited by the range -128 <= weight <= 127, and I think there is a bug when these are draggable which limits the range between 0 <= weigth <= 128, so I can't use it to sort. (b) The term ID (id) could also be used to sort, but I can't find a way to renumber them.

So I've created a new numeric field weight without problem. In Views when defining a new page term view, I can filter by the new weight field, but the new weight field does not appear to be available in sort.

Hmm. Looks like I completely overlooked sort criteria. I have a added a sort criteria for everything except textareas. I also added a filter for date fields. This is all in the latest version.
