I thought the primary reason people want a sort parameter is to specify a priori the order of records in the result set. Why wouldn't that apply in the case where a query is submitted, but no records are desired in that response? Secondarily, I thought we decided that we could supply a sort parameter and a result set id (no query) to mean sort existing result set. Why wouldn't that alone be a meaningful request (without asking for records)? --Ray
