DataGrid with image in the Column Header

Couldn't you overcome it if you'd use TemplateColumn and set the image and
text (link?) to HeaderTemplate?

In the HeaderTemplate set the link for example with LinkButton and set
"Sort" as command name for it and then the sort argument you wish to use as
command argument (of course DataGrid needs to be with AllowSorting="true").
