Angular.js: ngRepeat: Sorting with a function works except with "track by"

[simonjodet]

As you can see in this JsFiddle, http://jsfiddle.net/h4FCy/, if you sort a repeater with a function and a "track by", it doesn't sort items. If you remove the "track by", the items are sorted.

The syntax is tricky here. track by always goes at the end, even after other filters:

item in items | orderBy:'toString()' track by $index

See updated working fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/VrLBz/1/

I didn't know that, thanks. I thought at first I had a working exemple (with object instead of strings) but it was working by chance.

I think I might have found one case where track by $index at the end fails to sort. If the filters are being set to a result.
x in (auditEventsFiltered = (auditEvents | orderBy:sortType:sortReverse | statusOutcomeFilter:filters | multiWordFilter:filters)) track by $index
