The docker dashboard table ("Docker containers" top left) shows only top 5 containers (sorted by some unknown metric), but if I want to sort by some top header column, only the displayed data is sorted, missing some containers that may be in top 5 using that sort order.  
When I sort the data I expected the displayed container data to be recomputed and displayed top 5 using the selected sort column, or show all containers in table so that the data is correctly sorted.
