filtering doesn't work on columns with a renderfunction

[shmul]

It seems that the filter function completely skips the columns for which a renderfunction is defined. I'm not sure whether that was intended or not. In anycase, perhaps a new function should be defined that retrieves the content on which the filtering should work.

Hi !
The reason it doesn't work is because the sort and filter methods operate on the raw input. (In the case of ajax=true + delegate=true, this should be handled server side).

The only way to go about this sorting and filtering of data on columns with render function would be to somehow retrieve the rendered block and somehow figure out what (from all the html of each of the cell) should be used as the data to sort and filter. I don't really see a way to do this automatically.

Maybe have another function that should return the data to use as filter and sort ?

Do you have any idea, time , to give a look into this?
