Is there a usecase for implementing isort's presets? E.g. preset = black is short-hand for:

multi_line_output = 3
include_trailing_comma = true
force_grid_wrap = 0
use_parentheses = true
ensure_newline_before_comments = true
line_length = 88
split_on_trailing_comma = true

Note that most of these settings are not available in Ruff (yet); the only exception being the last two options.

Thanks! FWIW my general attitude is that I'm open to contributions for additional isort options, but we likely won't prioritize implementing them ourselves, and we likely won't support the options that enforce dramatically different formatting (e.g., any of the grid modes or alternate wrapping behaviors like multi_line_output -- it's just too much maintenance burden to support so many different formatting modes given how much less common they are IMO). That's in juxtaposition to options like lines-before-import which are comparatively less dramatic.

One major bump in my projects adopting the ruff isort'er is the length sort sections option. Is this something that a contribution would be welcome for?

Is there a plan for resolve the first issue? Support heading setting for isort
