We have some interesting code in our datatables wrappers to magically sort on
'title' attributes found in spans in table fields (When the headings are marked
up with 'title-string' and 'title-number' classes).

This is weird and a mis-use of the HTML title attribute. It results in tooltips
being generated for all fields witch such values and often those tooltips are
confusing/mismatched.

We should replace these with either data- attributes or perhaps use hidden
datatables columns for sorting?


Basically.. there must be a better way.
