Will you use the Nested Objects feature? Should we extend its capabilities?

Still loving this table I've built a crazy solution to manage my inventory. 1 thing I noticed is missing that we have in the standard table is the inspect cell option.
It's very useful, like in you example with the description we have 3 options, make the text wrap, which lengthens the table or no wrap but the text is cut off with no way to view it apart from copy paste or download the csv or create a fake edit action that will allow you to get into the cell.
Cell inspect would be a great alternative for long strings. Thanks

I love this plugin, so useful.
I would like to see a option to group by multiple objects. For example:
Lets say you had a list of servers, the operating system, uptime and all the services running on the machines. it would be good to group by the server name and have all the server data that is unique one one line and expanding will only display the services running on that machine.
