Vertical layout option (swap rows and columns)

[austinhoag]

I have some tables with lots of columns that I need to display. This does not fit nicely in the browser so I have used some javascript to swap rows and columns to make the display more manageable. However, this is fiddly and destroys the column_html_attrs among other undesired effects. It would be great if there was a native flask_table.Table() class attribute to swap rows and columns such that the column names could be in the left-most column and the row data could be displayed in columns rather than rows.

Here is a basic example. My real example has many more columns: Original flask table:

username	age	sex
user1	20	F
user2	22	M
user3	30	F

Desired vertical layout table:

username	user1	user2	user3
age	20	22	30
sex	F	M	F
