Comment #7 on issue 6001 by krtulmay: HTML tables should have a specific  
context-menu to allow opertions like sorting.
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=6001

How about a webpage that displays a tabular result of rows 1 through 10 out  
of a
total dataset of 100 rows?  (And often such tabular results will show a  
summary of
"Results 1-10 of 100" and include PreviousSet and NextSet links.)  Does a  
user expect
that resorting by a column header will resort all 100 rows?

That would be impossible for a client-side only webpage that is only  
displaying 10
table rows; the webpage doesn't have the entire dataset to resort with.

And it doesn't make much sense to just resort the 10 rows currently  
displayed either.
