Make numeric sorting the default for Count In Session Dimensions

All dimensions are treated as alphanumeric strings. But certain dimensions will only contain Numeric Information. When these are sorted on a report, they will order themselves in an unlogic fashion (e.g. 1, 10, 11, 2, 21, 25, 3).
Suggestion is to change this behaviour for dimension that we know are numeric (count in session, or populated by an event that has a numeric value or count), or even have the option to define the sort-order manually, either a generic option string/numeric, or a fully organisable list, or both.

    The current sort order follows a logic: alphabetical order is used for all data.

    I agree that dimensions which are known to contain numeric data (populated by an event count or a numeric event value) should be sorted in numerical order by default.
