Hello,
I'd love if I could set different default sorting (ascending vs. descending) in different table columns.
I know I can already choose the default sorting, but it seems to be working for all the columns at the same time. Ie. all my columns must either sort ascending, or descending by default. This makes table sorting annoying for some of my users.
Imagine I have a list of books sorted in a table. The default sorting is to sort alphabetically and ascending by the "name" column. Then there is an "average rating column". When an user clicks it, he expects to see the books sorting descending by their rating. Instead he sees them the other way around (bringing the books without any rating to the top), and must click once more to see the proper sorting.

merlinofchaos commentedI agree. There's even a TODO item to do that in the code. It's on my list!
