For any cells containing URLs, we should have a fmt_url() method to make them navigable links. We should be careful to employ the method only on column containing URL text (though it is probably the user's responsibility to ensure this and that there are, for example, no URLs as part of a larger block of text).
We could expose options for how the links should be styled. They can be of the conventional style (with underlines and text coloring that sets it apart from other text), or, they can appear to be button-like (with a surrounding box that can be filled with a color).
URLs in data cells could be detected in two ways:
using the simple Markdown notation for URLs of the form: [label](URL)
assumes that the text is simply the URL
For the second case the URL is also used as the label but there is the option to use the label argument to modify that text.
