/**
 * Perform a jQuery selector action on the table's TR elements (from the tbody) and
 * return the resulting jQuery object.
 *  @param {string|node|jQuery} sSelector jQuery selector or node collection to act on
 *  @param {object} [oOpts] Optional parameters for modifying the rows to be included
 *  @param {string} [oOpts.filter=none] Select TR elements that meet the current filter
 *    criterion ("applied") or all TR elements (i.e. no filter).
 *  @param {string} [oOpts.order=current] Order of the TR elements in the processed array.
 *    Can be either 'current', whereby the current sorting of the table is used, or
 *    'original' whereby the original order the data was read into the table is used.
 *  @param {string} [oOpts.page=all] Limit the selection to the currently displayed page
 *    ("current") or not ("all"). If 'current' is given, then order is assumed to be 
 *    'current' and filter is 'applied', regardless of what they might be given as.
 *  @returns {object} jQuery object, filtered by the given selector.

/**
 * Almost identical to $ in operation, but in this case returns the data for the matched

 * rows are found, the data returned is the original data array/object that was used to  
 * create the row (or a generated array if from a DOM source).
 *
 * This method is often useful in-combination with $ where both functions are given the
 * same parameters and the array indexes will match identically.
