Description

It would be nice if Hypergrid had a property to specify the properties hierarchy because I can see how some apps would prefer a different order, especially the ability to flip the order of applying row and column properties.

The current order is:
> grid ← column ← row ← cell

It would be nice to be able to flip it to:
> grid ← row ← column ← cell

Unfortunately, this is not possible in a performant way due to the current design. However it may be possible in a future version if we can address the design issue.

Research direction

Start by investigating Hypergrid’s current property-resolution design and how it applies grid, column, row, and cell properties. Compare the existing order with the requested row-before-column order, then determine whether the design issue can be addressed without sacrificing performance. Done means a configurable hierarchy works correctly and remains performant.
