Table Panel column not sorting number values

Trying to get a number value to sort correctly in a Table Panel, but numbers are being sorted as though they are string values–screenshot:

Using SimpleJSON datasource, whose output looks like this snippet:

[{"columns":[{"text":"Affected Users","type":"number"},{"text":"Application","type":"string"},{"text":"As of Date","type":"time"},{"text":"Crash","type":"number"},{"text":"CrashFree Sessions","type":"string"},{"text":"CrashFree Users","type":"string"},{"text":"Device Region","type":"string"},{"text":"Duration","type":"string"},{"text":"_id","type":"string"}],"rows":[["2","XXXX","2018-5-03 00:00:00","2","99.95%","99.7%","iOS_US","Last_30_Days","XXXXXX"]...

Please, am I doing something incorrectly with the data or the configuration in the panel? Many thanks.

The source of the numbers are in string format so that’s why they’re sorted that way.

If you find this feature really helpful I would suggest you to open a feature request issue.
