By design, yes.  I made an exception with these as I felt it would not
be right with these tables.

In general a user can seek for the answer to (at least) these two
different questions:
- What's the top 1, top 2, top 3
- How does item X (e.g. use flag "mp3") rank

Doing both in a static table can only be done with JavaScript magic
that's currently beyond my expertise.
As a result I had to choose between sort-by-popularity and
sort-alphabetically.  While a user can still answer the "how does item X
rank" question using browser text search determining the top N from the
table in his head alone can be quite a hard task.  So I think the
sort-by-popularity approach mainly "hurts less".

I'm open to suggestions on how to improve presentation of the data.
