> For example, if a table is currently multi-sorted by three columns - Name, Description, and Price, there is no quick way to know for each of these three columns, whether it is the primary, secondary, or tertiary sort column. A tiny "1", "2", and "3" next to the up or down arrow icon would clear this up nicely.
> For the RHQ project, we currently have a custom sorting facet which supports this feature. The facet is applied to a column as follows:
>    <rich:column>
>       <f:facet name="header">
>          <onc:sortableColumnHeader sort="res.resourceType.name">
>             <h:outputText styleClass="headerText" value="Type"/>
>          </onc:sortableColumnHeader>
>       </f:facet>
>       <h:outputText value="#{resourceComposite.resource.resourceType.name}"/>
>    </rich:column>
> I've attached a screenshot that shows how the column headers are rendered with the little numbers.
> I am creating this issue, because we would prefer using a built-in RichFaces feature, rather than a custom facet.
