It would be very difficult to support sorting on dates and numbers as in
HTML they are usually present formatted using specific locale. So there
should be additional attribute added to td/th which can hold sort key
which will override cell contents, something like
<td sortas="2012-11-07">11. listopadu 2012</td>
