In JS, the comparator passed to sort() can potentially mutate the array

Note that per spec the behavior if the comparator mutates the array is

I'm much more inclined to solve this from the data axis. Asking the table

some data source return you rows in sorted order (or indicate row order).
If you do something like MDV, sorting the table is applying a sort to the

I like this approach. One thing this loses is having default styling for
sortable headers. It would be awesome if sortable tables looked the same
across pages instead of each page needing to invent their own up/down arrow
UI.
Also, is MDV intelligent enough to know that you just moved items
