user-ss Allow user to specify client side formatting function for column. Offered JS and user would have been happy.

What formatting did they want and would we just add it as option?

I would second this request too. In our case we sometimes use "Financial Notation" which is similar to engineering & scientific notation (but slightly different) - e.g. 250,000,000 would be written 250E6. When we convert on the kdb side then we end up with strings, and then alphanumeric sorting.

If we could have the ability to write a JS function that returns what we want as a string, but the table maintains sorting & filtering on the underlying raw values - that would be ideal.
