Is it possible to somehow configure an 'order by' for the list of values generated via the 'includeFrom' attribute in a datasource?

I have 2 datasources.
The primary datasource is fed to a ListGrid.
The second datasource is providing the list of values for one of the columns in the primary datasource.

ListGrid.setShowFilterEditor == TRUE

I would like the automagically generated SelectItem values in the FilterEdtior to be sorted.

I can achieve this if I add an <orderClause> to the secondary datasource's default <fetch> binding. But this then effects the filtering of the secondary datasource when it is used independently.

Primary Datasource
Code:

<DataSource ID="myDataSource"
            dataFormat="iscServer"
            serverType="sql"
            dbName="MY_SVC"
            tableName="MY_TABLE"
            autoCacheAllData="true">
    <fields>       
      <field name="OD_ID" sequenceName="OD_ID_SEQ" type="sequence" primaryKey="true" canEdit="false"/>
      <field name="O_ID" type="integer" required="true" foreignKey="reportObjectsTable.O_ID" displayField="objectName" title="Object Name"/>
      <field name="OBJECT_ID" nativeName="O_ID" canEdit="false" includeFrom="reportObjectsTable.O_ID" />
      <field name="TYPE" type="text" required="true" length="20"/>
      <field name="SUB_TYPE" type="text" required="true" length="50"/>
      <field name="CONN_ID" type="integer" required="true" foreignKey="connectionsTable.CONN_ID" displayField="connectionName" title="Connection Name"/>       
     
      <field includeFrom="reportObjectsTable.objectName" hidden="true"/>
      <field includeFrom="connectionsTable.connectionName" hidden="true"/>
    </fields>
</DataSource>

Secondary Datasource
Code:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<DataSource ID="secondaryDataSource"
            dataSourceVersion="1"
            dbName="MY_SVC"
            serverType="sql"
            tableName="MY_TABLE2"
            autoCacheAllData="true">
  <fields>
    <field name="O_ID" primaryKey="true" sequenceName="O_ID_SEQ" type="sequence" canEdit="false"/>
    <field name="objectName" nativeName="NAME" length="80" required="true" type="text"/>
  </fields>
  <dropExtraFields>true</dropExtraFields>
  <operationBindings>
    <!--
    <operationBinding operationType="fetch">
      <orderClause>objectName</orderClause>
    </operationBinding>
    -->
  </operationBindings>
</DataSource>

I will create a test case if the above is not sufficiently clear.

Cheers
