Currently, these are independent and exclusive operations.
What makes most sense for me is that picking slices preserves the relative order of the current axis permutation (rather then the order of the slices coming out of the dialog box - alphanumeric I believe), and that sortByValue should sort just those values picked, rather than as currently, sort all values up to the current permutation size as currently, which is arguably not helpful at all.
This will take a bit to get that all to work.

I thought it might--in which case, forget the "get me a beta ASAP" in my
previous email: this needs to work as well for my intended example file.
July 1 is looking like a good choice for the release.
