You can use Ruby's Enumerable sort_by to sort an array correctly using Gibberish and Gibberish DB

It's not pretty, but it works on non-paginated lists. For pagination something else must bee cooked up. Here I sort an array of Category objects according to the localized name of the category.

@categories = @categories.sort_by{|a| 
      a[:name][].to_s
    }
