How to order search results by Model

[zweb]

How can I order search results by model?

[Greg Brown]

This might depend on the backend, but I've had problems trying to
order and filter on that sort of thing - I had to store the model name
explicitly in the index, in a charfield.

Daniel may have a better way though!

zweb,

You can do ``SearchQuerySet().order_by('django_ct')``. As a
warning, this throws out relevancy. The only way to keep relevancy &
group by model is either to run many queries (one per model - usually
performant thanks to query caching) or to run the query and
post-process the results, regrouping them as you go.

Supposing one does do multiple queries, one per model. How would one
merge the two resultant query sets, since they might need to be
paginated?

Not sure if queryset chain is the best way to go, http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1103/
Any thoughts?
