358593 - add an option to refactor almost empty rows/columns into an additional secondary table

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 271673

(Bugzilla :: Reporting/Charting, enhancement)

Description

[timeless]

bug 290611 complains about us showing components from random products, and it's true. but the fact is i don't want to see any row/column with just goose eggs, it's a waste of space, even if the column does exist.

expected results:
(bonus points) after a table, list all the rows and columns that were dropped because they contained only goose eggs.
no row or column should contain exclusively goose eggs (-)

actual results:
tables are unnecessarily very wide and very tall.
