Breaks taxonomies on network sites

After doing a Network Activate of the plugin on a network site, none of the taxonomy terms that were previously on the site show up in the WordPress admin area. I looked at the plugin code and it alters the wp_terms table and adds a term_order column. The problem is that on a network site there are multiple wp_terms tables and none of them are altered (only the main wp_terms table). So when the plugin is used on one of those sub-sites, and the plugin changes the orderby clause to use the column it added, that column isn’t there, so you don’t get any results. The plugin does work if you activate it for each, individual subsite because the ALTER TABLE on activate targets the wp_terms table of that specific site. You just can’t do a network activate.
