The feature of Datatables sorting separately the rows with order-by attribute
and the ones without and then concatenating them. There is no mention of that
in the documentation so it probably could have been implemented so that it
would sort everything as one group.

I think the undocumented sorting functionality here is good but only doubt is
that if it breaks in the future and our users will expect us to fix that it
might not be possible.
