Cool. Thanks. Now I have one more hurdle. Has anyone implemented
multi-column sorting with wx.Grid? The app that we are planning to port uses
a Tk-based widget called TableList which has this feature. One of the main
drivers for us to look at other toolkits is that the TableList is extremely
slow when you load it with a few thousands rows or more. But it does have
some neat built-in features such as multi-column sorting.

I am pretty sure it wx.Grid can do it. I just wanted to see if someone had
already done it. Otherwise, I may take a stab at it. :)

Thanks much.
