Yes, a quite good idea. Indeed, it is on my personal wishlist for long.
Of course it is not usefull yet, because it is hard to see
what is sorted and how. One possibility is maybe, put all numbers
in different columns (without parting line inbetween?), and
highlightning the header which determines the actual sort order.
There is enough room for this. Maybe it is possible to have
split column headers (e.g.:

     |   Surplus   |   Economy  |
     |  F | P | T  |  G | L | S |

), too.
