Krinkle, Sam: Can you take a look at this, please?

High priority: sortable && rowspans don't work together at all, pretty visible
for readers.

Example with "sortable" still enabled:

Potentially related past code changes (quick check):
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/30649/ Update jQueryUI to 1.9.1
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/23100/ make $.tablesorter treat alt like
text

============
Copying from the thread on
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29#Javascript_screwing_up_tables
:

"It appears that clicking the nth column header actually did sort the nth
column, but the first header has colspan="3". For all subsequent headers this
means that the column being sorted is two columns to the left of the clicked
header. Any chance the table sorter could be modified to handle this?"

"What is the logic about a colspan="3" on a header, and then saying that the
column should be sortable, while that column actually contains 3 columns per
row.. There are so many 'implied' assumptions being made by authors in such a
process, it's difficult to explain that to a JS. Also probably not that
'accessible' to screenreaders btw. Perhaps we should just avoid such constructs
on tables." —TheDJ 14:27, 8 November 2012 (UTC) 
============

Note to myself: The previous issue for this example when values were shown in
wrong table cells (making the table completely unreadable) was a markup issue:
Using ! instead of | in this specific table:
