Hi,
 
I just lost 2 hours on getting sorting to work correctly in my DataGrid 
backed by a ListDataProvider.
 
I was calling setList( rows ) on the DataProvider to update the table and 
that works... but sorting was not working (I could not even see the sort 
indicator on the table header cells).
Then it struct me: The ColumnSortEvent$ListHandler class takes a List as 
argument instead of the ListDataProvider.
When you call setList() on the DataProvider a new wrapper is created and my 
ListHandler is looking at the wrong one.
 
Wouldn't it be better that the ListHandler would keep a reference to the 
ListDataProvider instead ? Then it can call getList() on it when a sort is 
needed.
 
It is now a bit asymetric: calling setList() updates the table rows, but 
the sorter does not know... I am sure many people fall in this trap!
