 /**
  * Returns entries sorted as objects.
  *
  * This returns a array with sorted Horde_Ldap_Entry objects. The sorting
  * is actually done with {@link sortedAsArray()}.
  *
  * Please note that attribute names are case sensitive!
  *
  * Also note that it is (depending on server capabilities) possible to let
  * the server sort your results. This happens through search controls and
  * is described in detail at {@link http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2891.txt}
  *
  * Usage example:
  * <code>
  *   // To sort entries first by location, then by surname, but descending:
  *   $entries = $search->sorted(array('locality', 'sn'), SORT_DESC);
  * </code>
  *
  * @todo Entry object construction could be faster. Maybe we could use one
  *       of the factories instead of fetching the entry again.
  *
  * @param array   $attrs Attribute names as sort criteria.
  * @param integer $order Ordering direction, either constant SORT_ASC or
  *                       SORT_DESC
  *
  * @return array Sorted entries.
  * @throws Horde_Ldap_Exception
