Which methodology [which I've snipped] proves it can be done in fP--you've
done it.  So it's just a matter of throwing a conventional grid label set
on the relevant parts and triggering the rest.  Assuming that widget is
available in Reface.  If it's not, they should think about it.  But that's
just too cool a thing that could be ported and feel entirely comfortable to
'doze users--they wouldn't even know the difference.  Yet it's easy enough
to do behind the scenes.

Actually, and again assuming it's available, you could just reverse the
ascending/descending and end up with the tabs you could click multiple
times to resort in the opposite order...it's just changing the order and
adding a trigger.  And suddenly people know what they're doing intuitively
rather than having to be trained a bit.
