== Problem ==
Something I frequently miss when I use DPL to make queries is the ability to directly manipulate the sortkey. For example, if I want to make a dynamic list of all subpages of my user-page, I could do something like this:

<dpl>
namespace=User
titlematch=Mati/%
mode=category
shownamespace=false
replaceintitle=/Mati\//,
ordermethod=titlewithoutnamespace
</dpl>
... which shows one result here, because I've created a dummy-subpage. The problem is, that all subpages will be listed unter "M" because their name full name starts with "Mati". So I would like something in the same way as 'replaceintitle' but that manipulates the sortkey.

Various other methods could be used, if this is hard to do. i.e. the sortkey could only be the subpage name...

I hope there is a way to get this into the DPL. -- [[User:Mati|Mati]] 19:10, 7 June 2008 (CEST)
