Sort by line length

Please add an option to the Sort (F9) dialog-box to sort file by line length so that longer lines are at bottom of the file and shorter lines are the top;

This will help us with data analysis tasks to capture metadata on line length distribution.

Currently, I am taking data out of textpad and pasting it in to Excel and then using extra columns, formula etc., to find this information. I can do this type of work in TextPad if I could sort the data by length.

Please consider this feature enhancement.

Thanks
