Yes, what I'd want is like a Jupyter notebook for spreadsheets.

Drag a box to define a new table, intersperse whitespace with text/images/graphs/formulae (two cells) that aren't locked to a grid based on a upper-left table.

Auto-recognise the first line in a table as a title, second line as column headings.

LibreOffice already allows SQL on spreadsheets; but SQL formulae would be cool.

You can embed an integrated Jupyter notebook into a Grist spreadsheet: https://github.com/gristlabs/jupyterlite-widget/blob/main/US...
