All sorting should be working in this beta version. See attachment if you want to try it out. I haven't seen any errors. Please keep in mind, ALL options for this version are set in the ShowRoster Settings. There is no need to edit any usergroups. The bitfield file in the includes/xml folder can be deleted to avoid confusion.
Before I release the next full version:
1) I still want to get the avatar problem fixed, but I am having problems duplicating the problem. I need to know some options that you have on your forums before I can figure out what to do on mine. If you have a problem with the avatars working and you have a duplicate of your forums set up as a test site, let me know. I'd like to use that as a test bed so I can work out that problem. In the meantime, I'll keep looking into it.
2) I'm going to try and put together a different type of sorting area like Cozmic suggested. That is what I am working on now.
EDIT: #2 has been completed. I guess I'll release 4.0.3 as soon as I can figure out how to do the avatars. The zip file has been updated.
Check out my roster to view some of the changes:

The Adventure/Crafting Level columns are set to a single table format. You can do that with any column. You can also adjust the direction they are sorted.
EDIT again: I found a small problem with the sorting again. I thought I had it all worked out, but apparently I missed something. The default sort works perfectly, but once you do another sort, the users with blanks for the column you are sorting will not appear on the list. That's fine, but it is supposed to be an option to do that. I'll figure it out tonight.
