That's exactly right.

And this:

    config.columns[:vendor_name].sort = true
    config.columns[:vendor_name].includes = [:vendor]
    config.columns[:vendor_name].sort_by :sql => 'vendors.vendor_name'

works fine.  It was the fact that the info. was spread across the 
'includes' and 'sort_by' entries in the API that threw me off.

Thanks for the help.
