sort -c --dont-poop-out-at-the-first-disorder

Gentlemen, consider a file with oh, three points of disorder.
Well,
  $ sort -c timez1
  sort: timez1:418: disorder: 1162082133
is great at finding the first one, but to find the other two one has
to use ones brains. No fair.
So there should be some --dont-poop-out-at-the-first-disorder option,
to prevent the cop-out off to lunch attitude of the program when
hitting the mere first disorder.
Hurmf, well
  $ sort timez1|diff - timez1
is a half workaround.
