"hierarchize" the axis #59

Open rpbouman opened 7 months ago

Excel pivot tables seem to automatically "hierarchize" the items on the rows axis:

I think it would be cool to provide something like that.

I think it would be good to build this before building "proper" hierarchies (see: https://github.com/rpbouman/huey/issues/new) as this functionality would already bring in a lot of the capabilities needed for proper hierarchies, while it would be much easier to implement as it presumes much less from the user and thus the UI (in particular, in case of proper hierarchies users need a ui to define how the hierarchy is implemented, whereas this proposed feature simply treats all items on one axis as the levels of one hierarchy)
