Summary	0003584: Song-episode ranges are sorted alphabetically
Description	Currently, song-episode ranges are listed in this weird order: 1-12, O1-O12, OP1, S1, T1 BUT 1-12, ED1, O1-O12, S1, T1 O-episode position before OP-type C-episodes but after ED-type C-episodes. This can be seen on https://anidb.net/anime/9127 - "1-11, O1-O6, OP1" and "12-22, O7-O11, OP2a-OP2b BUT "1-11, ED1a-ED1b, O1-O5" and "12-22, ED2a-ED2b, O6-O11, S1". Additionally, the order in which songs are sorted also appears to be alphabetically by the episode-range. In cases when there's no regular episodes linked to a song, it can create sorting orders such as: OP1, OP10, OP11, OP12, OP13, OP2, OP3, etc. This can be seen here: https://anidb.net/anime/474 Making it line up with the order the different episode types are listed on anime pages would most likely be ideal. Although it might be better to put C-episodes at the beginning/end as it does look quite weird that they're in the middle: OP1, 1-12, S1, T1, O1-O12 or 1-12, S1, T1, O1-O12, OP1; The anime-episode order would put it as 1-12, S1, OP1, T1, O1-O12 which looks quite strange (which is already the case with the current sorting e.g. 1-12, O1-O12, OP1, S1, T1). Putting them at the beginning would additionally require ignoring them in sorting on the anime page as it would screw up the ordering when only some songs have C-episodes.
