BM-A sort by part number

I would like to be able to auto sort a BOM by part number.  Currently, the Auto Assign Line Numbers feature only seems to do this if all the line numbers are zeros.  Once line numbers have been assigned, the only way you can get them into P/N sequence is manually.

Let me bring up something for your consideration for this.....
 
Suppose that someone uses alpha part numbers? Or even more fun, mixed (some are alpha, some numeric), or even fully mixed (some alpha, some numeric, some alphanumeric)? How should the logic sort it then? Almost anything that is programmed will not work for a percentage of users.
 
Just something to think about....

It could use the same logic that DBA uses for other alphanumeric sorts (numbers then letters, if I remember correctly).  In my company,  we do not have bin locations for most of our parts, so they are stored in sequence.  If the BOM, and subsequently the pick lists are in P/N sequence, it makes it easy to pull parts.
    Maybe just a button to reset all the line numbes to 0 then.  Or possibly an easier way to move the order of items around in the BOM list.
