sort personal dictionaries

Hi, I keep my personal dictionary in version control (Subversion),
so it is important to me that it be stored sorted
lexicographically (or at least in some canonical order).
Currently it is straight out of the hash table and changes every
save.

Would it be possible to output the personal dictionary sorted, if
so specified by a configuration option?  Also I would like to be
able write "0" as the size hint, to be able to merge the
dictionary from multiple places without conflicts.

I can write a patch if necessary.  It looks like only
WritableDict::save() needs to be modified.
