What were you trying to do and how can we improve it?
I'm attempting to browse donor data. In doing so I see a super high number of "repeated" rows, that have the same name/recipient/location/date/value.
I assume these are really multiple distinct donations, but it'd be great if I could roll them all up into one row that showed the aggregate donation total.
