Rowspan feature 📢
We already had colspan supported, via DataView ItemMetadataProvider, and now we're also adding support for rowspan as well (which is partially reusing the code from @GerHobbelt's fork that had rowspan). However please be aware that both of these features come with special constraints, any side effects (i.e. Filtering/Sorting/Paging/ColumnReorder/ColumnHidding) will require you to add your own logic to deal with these side effects (this was also true for colspan, so there's nothing new here). In other words the lib doesn't know and cannot guess how and what you want to do with the spanning when a side effect occurs, because colspan/rowspan are, and will always be, based on row indexes and the question arise when a side effect occurs what do you want to do? Do you want to keep the spanning on the same row or do you want to only keep half of it or remove it all? The system cannot guess what you want to do when these side effects happens unless you tell it what to do... so use this new feature with some due diligence.
