/**
 * Base sort handler that has no options and performs a simple sort
 *
 * Definition items:
 * - formula: The formula to use to sort on, such as with a random sort.
 *            The formula should be an array, with keys for database
 *            types, and 'default' for non-specified. 'default' is
 *            required, all others ('mysql', 'mysqli' and 'pgsql' are
 *            optional). It is recommended you use 'default' for mysql
 *            and create specific overrides for pgsql when the formulae
 *            differ.
