We do already. I can't google-search the documentation offline. Isn't 
sorting or filtering really just an extension of that?

I'd think it would be appropriate to use PHP to add functionality to the 
online docs as long as it follows the same principle as javascript: it 
doesn't make information inaccessable when it doesn't work (in this 
case, when browsing offline). Of course, it would be great to have 
sorting capability offline too, but I don't see why that must be a 
prerequisite for implementing it in the online docs.
