Bug Description
Upon examine of several Dojo interfaces that utilize dropdown menus, I've found that the values are ordered by database id value (not very intuitive) rather than some alpha-sorting.
Example:
Acquisitions > My Selection Lists > Copies
We have many "Fund" values in the database. When the dropdown is ordered by ID value, it makes them tough to find. If this were ordered alphabetically it would be simpler to pinpoint a selection if they were sorted more intuitively.
Another case of this is found in Admin > Local Administration > Hold Policies

Is this still an issue? When I go to Aquisitions -> My Selection Lists and click "Reveal Search Form", then select "LID - Fund" - "is", I see a list of funds sorted by fiscal year, then by fund name.
If I'm looking in the wrong place, someone please correct me!
