The axes always navigate the source tree in which the node is contained.
If you want to navigate in the sorted data, you will have to create a
temporary tree that is sorted, as you suggest.

You haven't described your problem, but it looks like a grouping
problem. Have you checked the standard solutions to grouping problems at
