I'm using hiccup, and I'd like to build a table, but then have the option 
to re-order it (sort its rows by a column of my choosing). I want a 
`sort-table-by` function.

That is, if I've got


Color   Size
------  ----
red     2
green   7
blue    4


(or, as a data structure: `(def tbl [:table [:tr [:th "Color"] [:th 
"Size"]] [:tr [:td "red"] [:td 2]] [:tr [:td "green"] [:td 7]] [:tr [:td 
"blue"] [:td 4]]])`)

I'd like to be able to do `(sort-table-by tbl 0)` and get


Color   Size
------  ----
blue    4
green   7
red     2


or `(sort-table-by tbl 1)` and get


Color   Size
------  ----
red     2
blue    4
green   7


Where it gets tricky though is when your table has various attribute maps 
in it, and also when some of the values you're sorting on may be links.

A first try at a solution yields ... oh man, {sigh, deep breath} this, 
which doesn't work:

Thanks!
