It depends on how people use the app 2. But I'm sure that giving all tables copied from the web a "repeat heading" was a step in the wrong direction. Very rarely such tables will exceed 2 pages, so what's the point of "repeat heading"? Most tables out there aren't that long This might be confusing for beginners, but not for skilled users who already know the settings -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
