OK, I understand. It looks like you'll need to check $this->params and deal with yourself some of the things paginator does automatically. The principle is the same, however: just add however many fields you need to the order array.
It seems like you're going to make the interface overly complicated, though. But, without seeing your app, I can't really judge. Just an observation.
