Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It is not possible to sort by multiple columns in the Data Viewer.
After sorting by a single column, applying a sort on another column resets the previous sort instead of adding to it. This makes it impossible to perform common multi-column ordering (e.g. sort by id and then by name).

Describe the solution you'd like
Allow sorting by multiple selected columns. (e.g. primary sort + secondary sort).
Similar to standard table/grid behavior in many database tools.

Additional context
Sorting by id:

Sorting by name resets the id sort:
