comparator function does not work.

I was briefly trying to use the comparator function on the column configuration objects. I noticed that sorting was not working correctly for columns that were non_numeric and attaching my comparison (comparator) function had no effect. Looking into the code where the comparator is referenced I was unable to find any explicit use of the function (it's only used for a flag). There appear to be two bugs here (or I am using this incorrectly- if so please correct me)

1: comparator field on column definition object does not get triggered when present
2: sorting text columns does not cause any resorting to occur.

So, this is interesting. I was switching my data model to an abstract type of model so all the keys are no longer specific to the entity being graphed, they are computed as cidx1... cidx2. I noticed keys on the data objects must not be string keyed. This solves number 2, however, number 1 still seems to be a problem.

The comparator function still appears to not be utilized, the other issue in this ticket is due to string keyed fields.
