修改ExtJs store默认的排序行为

ExtJs2.0的时候，普通的Ext.data.SimpleStore的对数据的排序行为是区分大小写的。 比如有如下几个name,

[list]
1,Ashely,
2,amonda
3,Cary
[/list]

经过ExtJs SimpleStore排序后，出现的顺序如下：

[list]
1,Ashely,
2,Cary
3,amonda
[/list]

因为ExtJs内部是按照ASCII排序的，而在ASCII中，大写字母总在小写字母之前。

需要修改行为，使得排序不分区大小写。下面是我的实现，不通用，但是在这个例子是跑的通。

例子是ExtJs官方的的array_grid的例子,[url]http://www.extjs.com/deploy/dev/examples/grid/array-grid.html[/url]

下面是我修改过的代码，array-grid.js

    // should ensure that stable state ids are set for stateful components in real apps.
    Ext.state.Manager.setProvider(new Ext.state.CookieProvider());

        //覆盖的排序在这里起作用。

----------------
这里的办法可以实现修改排序行为,但是却不通用。我想要的是一种可以覆盖Ext.data.Store的行为的方式，可以方便在new instance的时候注入sort function.我有试着这样去写：

//省略其他
	Ext.apply(Ext.data.Store,{
		sortFn : undefined,
		sortData : function(f, direction){
			direction = direction || 'ASC';
			var st = this.fields.get(f).sortType;
			var fn = function(r1, r2 , store){
				var v1 = st(r1.data[f]), v2 = st(r2.data[f]);
				if(this.sortFn && typeof(this.sortFn) == 'function'){
					return this.sortFn(v1,v2);
				}else{
					return v1 > v2 ? 1 : (v1 < v2 ? -1 : 0);
				}
			};

			this.data.sort(direction, fn);
			if(this.snapshot && this.snapshot != this.data){
				this.snapshot.sort(direction, fn);
			}
		}
	});

	// 省略其他
       // 构造store的时候传入排序函数：
    var store = new Ext.data.CustomSortStore({
        fields: [
           {name: 'company'},
           {name: 'price', type: 'float'},
           {name: 'change', type: 'float'},
           {name: 'pctChange', type: 'float'},
           {name: 'lastChange', type: 'date', dateFormat: 'n/j h:ia'}
        ],
		sortFn : function(v1,v2){
			if(typeof(v1) == 'string' && typeof(v2) == 'string'){
				var v1l = v1.toLowerCase(),v2l = v2.toLowerCase();
				return return v1l > v2l ? 1 : (v1l < v2l ? -1 : 0);
			}else{
				return v1 > v2 ? 1 : (v1 < v2 ? -1 : 0);
			}
		}
    });

但是这样做不起任何作用，实际排序的时候走的还是Ext.data.Store的默认的sortData方法，并不能覆盖。

我想问问，怎么样才能实现我想的那种效果？
