Upgrade to JSpreadsheet v4

[tbergenhill]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently our project is seeking a R-based solution for a browser-based spreadsheet with tabs. excelR, which is based on v3 of JExcel (now jSpreadsheet), doesn't have the tabs.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great if excelR can upgrade from v3 to v4 of JExcel/JSpreadsheet

Describe alternatives you've considered
Our project is also looking into non-browser based alternatives to Excel, such as Java & Apache OpenOffice

Additional context
If the upgrade does happen, will this package still be called excelR? Or will another package be created (e.g. spreadsheetR)?

@tbergenhill Thanks for your query.
After fixing a few issues that have been reported in the current development version I will be releasing a new version of this package.
After that release, I'll need to check the different functionalities that the latest version of jSpreadsheet breaks. Depending on that I will decide if we need an entirely new package or if we could just upgrade excelR.

Thank you for responding, @Swechhya - I'll check back in a while to see which direction you'll go.

Look forward to this feature in the new package: Spreadsheet webcomponent

@Swechhya This has been about 2 years, but figured I would press my luck, any intention to possibly update this?
