Comment:

 The patch contains the suggested change with a small improvement. When
 sorting randomly what's the point of sorting by count first?

 Also not sure how `apply_filters( 'tag_cloud_sort', $tags, $args );` is
 supposed to be used. Is it there so plugins can "re-sort" the already
 sorted array? Perhaps it needs to be moved up and let a plugin replace the
 sorting methods, not add more sorting.
