I wanted something similar (to align the sort icon next to the text, on the right hand side). Here's how I did it.
1. Removed the default icons. See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9638940/gwt-celltable-remove-the-sorting-arrow-from-a-header 2. Created my own Header class. Ie: public class MyHeader extends Header<String> 2.1 Passed the table into the headers constructor, so it could listen for the column sort. Ie: table.addColumnSortHandler. 2.2 In the header, override the render method to render your text, and your icon (you know which icon to use, ascending or descending, from the column sort events). Note: When you do your rendering, you'll need to offset it to the left by 6 pixels. This is because, even though you removed the default arrows, there is still a 6 pixel gap put in by GWT. Ie: left:-6px;position:relative It's quite a bit of work for something that should be fairly easy to do. If anyone has an easier way, I'm all ears.
