Add ability to specify default sort column and direction

[justinobney]

should this be a config setting? Do you have a proposed structure?

Just basing this off the datatables config:

viewModel.config = {
  order: [[ 2, "desc" ]]
};

I'm thinking for local datasource you could also just specify the property name instead of the index.

viewModel.config = {
  order: [[ "firstName", "desc" ]]
};

I think the datatables parser requires the index which you don't know until after the first load, right?

Ahh I think you are correct.
