My purpose for making the comparison between Transient and regular Emacs
keymaps in my previous message was to suggest what would be the highest
value Transient features regular keymaps could support to get most of
the utility of Transient menus without the associated complexity.

For display, which-key supports some sorting options, although I don't
know if they are as extensive as icicles/keysee.el etc.  However the
kinds of tasks people write Transient menus for do not usually benefit
from being able to sort items on the fly.
