Thanks for great grid implementation. I am in love with its speed and flexibility.

Would be perfect if these things in the subject being available to use right out of the box.
That's the basic functionality business users are usually asking.

What I expect is dataView.groupBy to turn into something like this:
dataView.groupBy({
group1: {valueGetter1, valueFormatter1, sortComparer1},
group2: {valueGetter2, valueFormatter2, sortComparer2}
})

and sub grouping to be displayed with indent or something like that.

Similar tweaks are expected for onSort event. And sort by additional columns while holding ctrl or shift key.

Also would be nice to have integrated means to keep children records to be moved automatically after parent ones. It can be tricky for average user to handle all that manually when sorting and grouping is enabled.
