Suggestion - support for itables/DT ipython a widget #54

ITables is a ipython widget for DataTable. It would be great if this was supported in python for shiny as the html widget, DT is very useful.

Table viewing widgets such as DT and Reacttable fulfill a different use case than a data grid widgets such as rhandsontable in shiny apps.

I raised an issue in itables suggesting support for py-shiny

Thanks!

Also, I just want to mention that shinywidgets already supports packages like qgrid, ipydatagrid, and in theory any other interactive table built on ipywidgets' Widget class.
