Application List table should have sortable columns

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I am interested in seeing the most recently updated/added proposals, or
those from a particular student, or with a particular mentor...

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: Ability to sort the Application List table by an arbitrary column.
Actual: The table appears to be sorted first by score, and then by Student.

After reading the documentation (sorry, I had trouble finding it), I understand 
the
sort behavior.  However, I would still like this feature, especially in the 
absence
of searching/starring/tagging.  :-)

Agreed.  When trying to work through large numbers of applications, the order 
of the
applications can shift around as other mentors enter new scores.  Being able to 
view
the applications in order of submission time (either ascending or descending) 
and/or
sort by name would be very helpful.  Forced to choose, I think
sort-by-submission-time would be most useful.

Sorry for the "met too" comment, but I thought this example might underscore the
value of this enhancement.

Yes, this would be extremely useful.  We have resorted to importing the student
application titles into a Google Spreadsheet so that we can get the sorting 
features
we want and then transferring the feedback back into the Google web app.
