Screenshot showing "mixed up" appointment ordering

SUMMARY
Appointments on a day in month view are not shown in the order in which they occur. See screenshot.

The affected appointments are defined in a different time zone, but sorting should be in the effective appointment order.

The shown local times are correct, but an appointment occuring at 10:30 local time should NOT be displayed AFTER appointments occuring at e.g. 14:00 local time.

I expect the appointment to be displayed between the appointment occuring at 8:00 and the one at 11:00.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. 
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Appointments are not sorted according to the time of day they start.

EXPECTED RESULT
Appointments should be sorted according to the time of day they start.

@gjditchfield@acm.org: Mh, mixed up sorting of appointments looks like a genuine bug to me rather than a wishlist item?

I don't consider it a "normal" bug because no information is incorrect or missing.

This case can probably be improved, but multi-day events complicate
the general case.  The month view aims for compact layouts.
Generally there are no perfect layout algorithms, only "best effort".
