Summary:
sortby parameter ignored when using action=category show_items=true
Detailed Description:
The sorting of items (not categories) when shown in a category action seems to
be hardcoded as alphabetical. Ideally it should use the orderby= parameter so
item_position and other options could be used.

Actually the orderby parameter in a category action is supposed to be only for
the categories not the items, regardless of the show_items setting. It lacks
documentation so it can be confusing. Not a bug "per se" but a feature
worthwhile implementing. However even the original implementation of the orderby
for categories is quite a bit buggy, so the BR is still pertinent to some
extent.
The feature described is also being implemented at this point.
Thanks.
