A hash of plugin-IDs to register. The keys of the hash are the names of the
plugins, and the values of the hash give the order of lookup of the field
values. The order can be 'first', 'last', 'middle', or an explicit order
sequence between 'AA' and 'ZZ'. If the simpler type of registration is used,
then the order will be 'middle'.

## PageSpec **field_tags**
The "field" PageSpec function can be used to match the value of a field for a page. field_tags => {
BookAuthor => '/books/authors',
BookGenre => '/books/genres',
MovieGenre => '/movies/genres',
}
**field(*name* *glob*)** A hash of fields and their associated pages. This provides a faceted
tagging system.
The way this works is that a given field-name will be associated with a given
page, and the values of that field will be linked to sub-pages of that page.
For example: For example:
field(bar Foo*) will match if the "bar" field starts with "Foo". BookGenre: SF
**destfield(*name* *glob*)** will link to "/books/genres/SF", with a link-type of "bookgenre".

when the source page is being included in another page).
The `field` plugin provides a few PageSpec functions to match values
of fields for pages.

* **field(*name* *glob*)**
* field(bar Foo\*) will match if the "bar" field starts with "Foo".
* destfield
* **destfield(*name* *glob*)**
* as for "field" but matches against the destination page (i.e when the source page is being included in another page).
* field_item
* **field_item(*name* *glob*)**
* field_item(bar Foo) will match if one of the values of the "bar" field is "Foo".
* destfield_item
* **destfield_item(*name* *glob*)**
* as for "field_item" but matches against the destination page.
* field_tagged
* **field_tagged(*name* *glob*)**
* like `tagged`, but this uses the tag-bases and link-types defined in the `field_tags` configuration option.
* destfield_tagged
* **destfield_tagged(*name* *glob*)**
* as for "field_tagged" but matches against the destination page.
## SortSpec
The "field" SortSpec function can be used to sort a page depending on the value of a field for that page. This is used for directives that take sort parameters, such as **inline** or **report**.
