Hi, I missed some of this thread, I only just joined the list. Although it's
less than optimal, can you not just sort the keys when you need them.
Something like:

require 'enumerator'
sorted_keys = hash.enum_for(:each_key).to_a.sort

Again, there might very well be a better way to do even that, I'm new to
ruby.
