In terms of code, yes for sure it is a new feature. I was thinking more
in terms of UI expectations. E.g. if a Close button failed to close a
dialog and one had to click the [X] instead, it would probably be called
a bug even if it required totally new code to make it work. In the same
way, from a UI expectation point of view, I think if a column header can
be clicked but doesn't do anything (i.e. sort) it can be viewed as a bug.

Well, it was worth the 5-minutes it took to upgrade. But addmittedly
I'm not likely to use the "feature" :) again soon.
Thanks for TSVN.
