Subject: Don't sort hashes if they are tied
While trying to debug some code using Tie::IxHash I ran into the fact that Data::Dump auto-sorts hashes for you! This is not good when your hash is already sorted another way. :)

Did anything go wrong besides the keys coming out in a different order than you expected?

Nope, it just confused me and made me think my tied hash wasn't working properly.

I think it's best to just leave it like it is. If you feel strongly about it please provide a patch (with testcase) and I'll consider it. For now I'll just close this bug.
