The way to sort existing formats like dats can be customized by overriding the function with a locale aware one (see bug 15408). However, it doesn't allow to use other formats, like full months. There should be a way to provide new regex to call sortable functions (bug 8226 also wants to increase the recognised date formats, but doesn't allow local customization).
fixed in patch for Bug 8028
r86088 Use it like tablesorter.addParser( { id: "time", is: function (s) { return ts.rgx.time[0].test(s); }, format: function (s) { return $.tablesorter.formatFloat( new Date( "2000/01/01 " + s ).getTime() ); }, type: "numeric" } );
