Matrix - Sort columns by value

Matrix currently doesn't allow you to sort the columns based on designating values as being a priority above the column field names.
For example, my field in the columns section results in three columns. If you add two sets of values, you are forced to see: Column 1, Value 1, Value 2, Column 2, Value 1, Value 2, etc. Like in a Pivot Table, you should be able to prioritize values so that it shows as: Column 1, Column 2, Column 3, Value 1, Column 1, Column 2, Column 3, Value 2.

Sorting columns in matrices by values is kind of essential.

We have business owners asking for this and declining to move from Excel to PBI (causing us to use this less and less) because this feature is missing.

Must needed feature. Is there any update on same?

Please add this feature! Not being able to sort significantly limits my capacity to present information in a meaningful way. In some cases, it makes Power BI useless and I have to rely on Excel or another program.
