 Nyx 2.0.4 at Linux. How to reproduce:
   1. Go to configuration editor.
   2. Press `s` and select the following order: `Is Set`, `Name`,
 `Description`.
   3. "Toggle filtering" by pressing `a`.
   4. Nyx immediately crashes with the following log:
 {{{

 I guess it would also crash with many other types of ordering.
