Comments.Text: The short answer is that no one must have needed this before - because it'd be very easy to add.  Instead of writing an extension/custom report, I'd honestly just add this to the core report (could be done with 3-5 lines of code) and submit the improvement to core CiviCRM for inclusion in future versions.

  I suggest you use the Contribution **Details** Report rather than the **Summary** Report. In the "Columns" tab, choose "Payment Type". In the "Sorting Tab" select "Choose a Payment Method" as the sorting method, plus any other columns you wish to sort by.
  
  Hope this helps.
