Extra fields bug

Members	Good afternoon, I've just found an annoying reproducible bug. If your site has an extra field and you want to change the default sort order for a category (Admin Panel > Structure > [entry] Config). Selecting a new item from the Sorting Column (which will list your extra field(s)) list field and hitting Update will result in: The extra field will fail to parse (site-wide!) and the Sorting Column will now NOT include the extra field(s). My temporary solution after re-sorting a category was to then go to Admin Panel > Other > Extra Fields and simply hit 'Update'. This restores the parsing of the extra fields. I've left putting this bug report on GitHub until someone else can reproduce it.
