Draw only style updates without data updates #201

Support Question

Is there a way or an API to invoke only the style listeners without invoking the data listeners. The table.draw API updates both the data as well as style.

Sometimes to add more interactivity to the table (such as highlighting the column containing the cell on hover) requires recalculating the styles of the cells. Currently I achieve this by calling table.draw but this also invokes the data callback which adds an unnecessary overhead. This ends up being a laggy experience if I am hovering through multiple cells very quickly.
