Dynamically sorting the status table by column (http://www.google.com/search?q=javascript+table+sorting

streaming filter.
Though now that it is based on ERb, the streaming functionality is
lost. Which means we should probably also switch to XML!?!
Maybe though, if we want to keep the incremental rendering, we could
use threads to feed the ERb data supplier.
The streaming functionality works, to at least some degree. If it
didn't, you'd be staring at a completely blank window much longer
during status and (especially) updates.
ERb generates Ruby source code (replacing HTML with statements that
append the HTML text to a string variable) from the RHTML file and
then executes the source code to produce the final HTML. You just need
to set up the ERb compiler class to publish the output to a stream
instead of gathering the output into that variable. The code to do
this is very small, but should be factored out of the format_status.rb
into some utility file somewhere. It is strikingly non-obvious.
