Hi list, recently I discovered that it is not possible to yield from
within a table.sort sorting function. Is this intentional behaviour?
There doesn't seem to be a note in the manual saying this isn't
possible. You /can/ yield from c callbacks in places like xpcall.

A yieldable sort implementation is not a good idea, because you can easier modify the table when it is sorting.
