That's very likely on me. I'll look into it now

I found it in #17480. I don't think it intersects, but an interesting data point is: Nobody complained about it in the last few days and I only found it because I'm working on a related feature, so maybe the
show_in_browseris not that regularly used. (Nothing better than breaking something to find out is users care for the functionality).Cadair commentedon Jan 7, 2025
Just to make the point, I found this while using table "in the wild".
