If header text could utilize a function (such as LOOKUP) that returns a value from a table, you could then have a table with columns named after the top n products.

RE: Dynamic Column Headers in Table/Matrix

I often use a switch statement to display e.g. budget or previous year in a table compared to actual. It would be great if the column header would change the name.
