    I guess you mean pivot table (at least Google knows
    something about this). Could you shortly explain what is it
    good for and how it should look like?

    Among JavaScript libraries we can use to implement this http://nicolas.kruchten.com/pivottable/examples/ looks quite interesting. However, these plugins needs all the data to be pre-loaded to the client side which makes this feature usable only for very small tables.

    So, I am wondering whether this is really in scope for phpMyAdmin.

      Given the limitations, maybe it's too much to implement it. I expect that most users have a client application to interact with their data; we try to make it easy to work with data but for full visualization and complex display a user really should use their own application.

      An interesting idea, but perhaps a bit outside the phpMyAdmin project scope.

    Determined to be out of scope by the team.
