Support include flags for sort key and order about plugin-blog

[michitux]

The include flags for sorting are in fact not supported, they are only for the include modes where multiple pages are included in the include plugin. What you could do, however, is using the include plugin directly instead of the blog plugin. Pagination and the add new entry form will be missing but apart from that it should be pretty much the same.

I agree that the blog plugin should also support flags for the sorting key and order. Maybe the _get_included_pages()-function of the include plugin could be used by the blog plugin, too, in order to avoid code duplication - though the getBlog()-function includes a lot more metadata in the output. Maybe the getBlog()-function could also use the include plugin's function in order to get the (sorted) list of pages and then load the additional metadata and do the additional checks only for the first X pages that are really needed.

OK, for my use case I suppose I can just drop to the Include plugin for the situation where I need a custom page order, only I don't see that the include plugin lets me limit the number of pages retrieved from a namespace. Am I just missing this functionality? If not then it isn't an equivalent solution unfortunately.

Thanks.
