On the bright side, the list under "Sorting" at the docs
http://dlang.org/phobos/std_algorithm.html
is short enough for the curious to just look at the entries and 
find it.
The specific page
http://dlang.org/phobos/std_algorithm_sorting.html
does even contain a link explaining what that is, but I'd propose
-"Sorts with the help of the Schwartzian transform."
+"Sorts by key predicate with the help of the Schwartzian 
transform."
or some similar wording.
