A couple of new options have been added to the "Table Module". One can now add "In-cell bar charts" to the table, which makes it much more easier to browse the data table and discover extreme values. And one can add a thumbnail of the evolution of the data set over time to the table, which makes it easy to get an idea of the broader trends for each country as well.
