Todo in minibuffer.el:
;; - for M-x, cycle-sort commands that have no key binding first.
So there are at least 3 possible sort orders:
- alphabetical
- no key binding first
- history sorting
Then the question is how the users could select a sort order.
Maybe either by customization or using a keybinding.
