You'll have to write some code that can create a form or a series of links outside the table. As long as the externally requested URL is the same as the one DisplayTag generates then you should have no issue. The fiddly bit is calculating the id number of the table to create the d-xxxx-s=n and d-xxxx-o=n attributes of the request. There's a method in the source somewhere that does it ISTR.
From reading the linked discussion it sounds like a useful addition to the displaytag library. Maybe you'll be able to submit it to the devs as a patch when your done?
