Freeze functionality needed in the DataTable plugin to improve readability

[ashildskalnes]

The option to freeze selected columns (and maybe rows) as in excel would greatly improve the readability for "large" tables

@ashildskalnes I assume you are referring to this plugin? Think we will be able to support this without much effort as long as it is ok to define the freezed columns in the yaml-config by adding the freeze_columns and freeze_rows options from: https://dash.plotly.com/datatable/reference

If you want to have interactive selection of freezed columns and rows, that would probably have to be done by defining a new plugin, which wraps the DataTable plugin and includes freeze selectors.

Sorry, forgot to mention that the plugin is indeed the data_table:-( Yes, freeze columns (and rows) should be defined in the yaml-config (I don't really see the need for interactive selection):-)
