[wp-hackers] GSoC Proposal: Sort By Column

[Jeremy Clarke]

I love the idea and think you are doing a good job of thinking through
the problems. +1 for the project.

Personally I think the radio+pulldown isn't the best solution.
Non-technical users will find it very strange compared to those of us
used to PHPMyAdmin and other user-spiteful software designed for
programmers. It seems like there is usually horizontal space for the
two buttons for asc and desc in the column headers so that's a decent
idea. Another would be to have a hover state that showed the word
'sort', and clicking on it popped up a favorites-style pulldown for
sort ascending and sort descending.
