Color highlighting while Sorting

Feature Ideas
1

Hi, baserow! I would like to bring to your attention an issue regarding color highlighting.

In Airtable, when sorting is enabled, the entire column is vividly yet harmoniously highlighted, making it immediately noticeable without being overly striking.

In contrast, Baserow only highlights the column header, and that too in a less conspicuous color. This subtlety does not catch the eye as effectively. I believe adopting a highlighting approach similar to Airtable’s would significantly enhance the user experience in Baserow.

Hello @Alexander, the request has been accepted. We will also need our product designer to work on the UX for it, as we need to decide how to implement it without conflicting with row coloring. :ok_hand:
