      Description

      In showcase app, on the ace:dataTable -> Grouping page:
      When loading the page initially, it has sorting enabled for 2 columns (1- Chassis, 2- Accel). These columns are highlighted.
      A user can click on another column to sort, and then remove this third sorting by clicking on 'Chassis' or 'Accel', but cannot remove the default sorting by Chassis and by Accel.

        One possible solution would be to adopt a 3-step toggle for when a column is clicked to be sorted within a multi-column sort.

        Currently, Ctrl/Command clicking the column will toggle it's sort between asc/dec (2 steps). If we instead toggle between asc/desc/unsorted that would solve this issue.

        Ken's suggestion would not solve this "issue". What Carmen describes it the intended behaviour of the grouping feature.

        Grouped columns have priority over sorted columns during sorting, but aren't the same as sorting and cannot be "ungrouped" by the client.
