The way I did it was to put a mouse listener on the table header, get the
Point from that, and use JTableHeader.columnAtPoint(Point) and
JTableHeader.getHeaderRect(TableColumn).
I have a pressedColumn field which is used by the renderer to
programmatically press or release a JButton within itself.
I have successfully implemented both sorting and filtering of data. I have a
clickable table header for sorting, and a button within the header which
(when pressed) reveals a popup menu used to select the data to filter on.
