If
any row in it contains a number, the
whole column is right-justified. Does that even make sense?

you mean you have a programmable "formula" that computes both numbers and strings?
in such a case things can go either way...

I mean that I felt the urge to test your proudly announced feature.

good extreme testing but in this case the formula will be considered either number or text and be aligned accordingly

why don't you concentrate your testing to some other more important feature?

I would love to be able to use regular expressions in the quick filter (minisearch) box.
It would be nice if Ctrl+J would remove the current quick filter (minisearch).

at present it's just for plain name searches, we'll see for more additions in the next version
but then it would no longer be "quick"

Regular expressions can be typed or pasted just as quickly as plain text strings…

sure but I have a simple comparison logic for incremental search that won't work if the strings contain special characters. We'll see
