KScoreDialog only sorts based on score. If two entries have the same
score, then the older one is considered better.

If you wish to have more complicated sorting in your game, then
calculate a score that includes the other parameters you wish to sort
on. So for the example above,

score = points * 10000 + time

So you get:

Name Score Points Time
A    20004 2      4
B    40003 4      3
C    40005 4      5

Then just hide the "Score" column in the dialog to avoid confusing
your users. I hope that makes sense.
