Description of problem: I'm migrating from DataTables 1.x and noticed that the class option no longer applies to thead cells. Can this be achieved somehow with 2.x?

I don't see an option columns.class in the docs so not sure what is expected. There is a columns.className that applies the class to the thead, tbody and tfoot. Updated test case:

Ah, maybe the "class" option is something old and deprecated. It did work in my test case for tbody and it worked for both in 1.x.

I'll update my code

Ah - class would have worked as a happy accident because of the Hungarian notation sClass from way back in the day. The translator will have picked up class as a match for that. Mildly surprised that it has changed for 2, but yes, use columns.className.
