Essentially, it pops an HTML app into a panel in JupyterLab, and I think registers the app as a file viewer for a particular file type. (I'm not completely taken by it, tbh, because it means you can do irreproducible things to the chart definition file, but that's another issue). JupyterLab extensions can also open files from a dialogue as the iframe/html previewer shows: https://github.com/timkpaine/jupyterlab_iframe. This made me wonder about what `datasette` integration with JupyterLab might do. For example, by right-clicking on a CSV file (for which there is already a CSV table view) in the file browser, offer a *View / Run as datasette* file viewer option that will: - run the CSV file through `csvs-to-sqlite`; - launch the `datasette` server and display the `datasette` view in a JupyterLab panel. (? Create a new SQLite db for each CSV file and launch each datasette view on a new port? Or have a JupyterLab (session?) SQLite db that stores all `datasette` viewed CSVs and runs on a single port?) As a freebie, the `datasette` API would allow you to run efficient SQL queries against the file eg using using `pandas.read_sql()` queries in a notebook in the same space.

Would it make sense to have a setting that can limit the amount of text displayed in any given cell in the table preview, or (less useful?) suppress (with notification) the display of overlong columns unless enabled by the user? An issue then arises if a user does want to see all the text in a cell: 1) for a particular cell; 2) for every cell in the table; 3) for all cells in a particular column or columns (I haven't checked but what if a column contains e.g. raw image data?
