When sorting on a translated field, the results are being sorted based on the English text, not the translation.

Pre-requisite:  Instance should have any I18N Language installed (ex: French | com.snc.i18n.french)

1. Set your language to French
2. Navigate to incident.list
3. Click on Catégorie to sort by this column

Expected:  Column should be sorted in French

Actual: Column is still sorted by English (Key) value

Sorting is designed to be done by the key for those fields. Since working by design, no plan to address this in one of the foreseeable upcoming releases.
