No support out of the box for this with react-toolbox.

Options:

create a wrapper for the built-in table component that provides column sorting support
use a different data table lib, such as https://facebook.github.io/fixed-data-table

Following a series of discussions w/ @TrevorJamesH, pulling this back onto the icebox for now. We'll instead prioritize implementation of a search feature.

One of the primary complicating factors is that one of the tables that would be affected is now paginated (the Projects list, by cycle -- introduced after this feature was first requested and tracked in the old system). Not having the entire data set loaded diminishes the utility of a sorting function. It's clear that a more useful feature would be the ability to filter/search for content in the system.
