Sorting tables by number of segments is broken

[hristo-stripe]

The Controller UI does not sort the list of tables properly by the column Number of Segments.

@hristo-stripe Can you please share more context on the ask here? Are you suggesting adding a feature to sort the tables within the cluster manager UI?

I am reporting a small, but slightly annoying bug.

The UI already supports sorting the tables by various columns. Clicking on the column title, e.g. Estimated size, will sort the shown list of tables by the values in that column. Clicking the column header again will sort by ascending/descending order.

I am reporting a bug where the Number of Segments column rearranges the list in alphabetical order, not actual numbers order. E.g. if you have three tables with 5, 8 and 54 segments respectively, they'll show up in the order:

table_name_1 ............... 5 / 5
table_name_2 ............... 54 / 54
table_name_3 ............... 8 / 8

Which is sorted...alphabetically, not numerically.

I see. So this is an UI bug then. Thanks for reporting it!
