Zenmap IP (host) sort not octet aware

["Norris Carden" <ncarden () ascendfcu org>]

In Zenmap, when sorting the list of ports/hosts by the Host column, the
sort of IPs without host names is not octet-aware... meaning it sorts
like Excel, not like an IP address aware software. This is how it sorts:

 

10.1.1.1

10.1.1.10

10.1.1.2

10.1.1.20

10.1.1.3

10.1.1.30

 

It would be very helpful if this sort was made to be aware that it was
sorting IP addresses in order to present in this fashion:

 

10.1.1.1

10.1.1.2

10.1.1.3

10.1.1.10

10.1.1.20

10.1.1.30

 

Ideally this would work on all octets.

 

Also it would be nice to be able to sort by IP, regardless of host name.
I believe IP and host are two parts of the same XML field.
