I noticed currently we can sort by term (name?) or term weight in the UI, but no further options. I guess that means sort by all terms? Not sure how that works.

My particular use case is I have a content type that tagged with many vocabularies, 'province' is one of them, and I want to sort them by the province tag.

A filter couldn't solve the problem, because when I enable a filter of 'province', nodes of this content type that are not tagged with a 'province' are removed, while I want to show them ALL, likely having the nodes without a 'province' at the beginning or end. If I disable the province filter, it just show all terms from different vocabularies and the order messed up.

I believe the sort by term options should have a further setting of 'vocabulary', is that possible?

To do this right we probably would need to add a relationship to the terms. This is something that I should have added much earlier, but have elected not to because it would clash somewhat with the existing mechanisms and be confusing.

I'm still on the fence about doing it.

I don't think so, it would be cool and from my perspective not so hard, but i don't have time to work on it.

The required relationship actually got added some time ago. Node: Related terms, I believe. You can select by vocabulary, and then sort on a term from the vocabulary.
