The fix for bug 898200 does not solve this issue: We do not offer to display BugTask.datecreated, but we allow only sorting by fields that are displayed.
So: Should we extend the set of fields we display, or should we extend just the sort options? I prefer the former, because not showing the sort value makes it hard to answer the question "how far away from the start/end of the result set is the data in the current batch?" Specifically in this case: "How old is this bug task?"
