    The recent addition of conditional formatting for values is wonderful. However, it would be great to have the ability format subtotals and totals, as the variation on those fields are often even more important to draw attention to.

    Hierarchical sorting needed in visuals ...
    Work around is add a numeric column to dummy up the sort. ie 3 tier sort the column would be nnn format where each position relates to each tier. Also need a way to hide this special sorting column
    Up vote this one too!

    This is VERY much needed with options of having parent-row conditional formatting a deeper color and sub-rows/child-rows a more transparent color.

    I would like to see this, so we can compare the grand totals to the RAG rating (for example) of the rows above.
