I generally post-process the table source data with my toolkit `selectStar()` function to add a column containing the original data row index **within** the table data. As long as this is present in `props.columns`, usually hidden, this extra index will show up in `rowData` as well as filtered and sorted feedback properties.

```python
selectStar(
    {path.to.source.data},
    asMap('sourceIndex', 'I'),
    idx()
)

```
