If we can solve the problem of generating HTML from vdom as a fallback (https://github.com/nteract/vdom/issues/43) and the vdom developers are supportive for various issues that come up, that could easily be the best option.

I would be reluctant to *only* support vdom output, because there are a lot of legacy notebook viewing interfaces (including various IDEs, cloud hosted notebook environments and rendering on GitHub) that could take a while (years?) to support it.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,264747372

Yes, probably at this point. But hopefully we can do a shorter release cycle for v0.11. Also, though this *is* a big visual change, I'm not sure it's actually a breaking change, per se.

It makes two changes:
- Changes the letter ""A"" to ""a"" for attributes. Maybe this is just me, but the capital ""A"" feels very loud, and reminds me of [the scarlet letter](https://www.google.com/search?q=scarlet+letter+book)!
- Moves the marker ""a"" closer to the variable name, which makes it slightly clearer that it's associated.

Yes, but let's keep it -- it have a nice pure text format (from ncdump) which works especially well with copy & paste.

> Given your case, maybe it would be nice to add a rule to show the attribute section collapsed when the number of attributes is too long. If we allow that, then maybe it would be nice to also show the number of items in the section titles, e.g., `► Attributes (10):`

Yes, I like that. Possibly clicking on the array values would show the larger preview.

I did play around a little with a hover drop down, but the positioning is a little hacky:

I slightly prefer the grayscale you had before -- the section titles are already well detached.

Love it!

> drop-downs for displaying attributes per variable if any (collapsed by default).

It is wonderful to expose this information! I have a slight concern that the `+` icons could be confusing with the `*` we use for index variables in the normal repr. I don't have any good ideas for fixing this yet.

> hover-effect for dimensions: highlight all variables having the hovered dimension (uses Javascript)

For highlighting, maybe something a little more subtle would work well, either:
1. only highlighting the dimension names below, not the full variables, or
2. only highlight full variables with a matching name, as well as all matching dimensions.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,264747372

Agreed. Notebook viewers tend to sanitize out JavaScript, especially if originating from an unknown source.

This would also be awesome, if possible with pure CSS. I don't know, but I'm going to bug my colleague who does JavaScript visualization.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,264747372
