I wanna sort a Lua table without a concept of length.
I've been wondering: why does table.sort not have optional

Beginning and... starting points?
Huh? O_o
1. table.concat, table.move, table.unpack all have it.
2. It makes a lot of sense (in fact, many sorting algorithms
operate that way).
3. It is a very easy thing to implement.
4. The maligned concept of length can be sidestepped.
