Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

There are no ability to create view which summarize rows of selected data

Describe the solution you'd like

For example we have a table like this:

column1 column2 column3
value_A value_D value_H
value_A value_D value_I
value_B value_E value_I
value_B value_F value_J
value_C value_G value_J

It needs to be added something like this to "Filter" section:

Column -> <select column1> -> select operator (contains or is equal) e.g value_A -> checkbox "summarize"
Column -> <select column2> -> select operator (contains or is equal) e.g value_E-> checkbox "summarize"
Column -> <select column3> -> select operator (contains or is equal) e.g. value_I-> checkbox "summarize"

After making several settings with filter we could get a result table like this:

column1 column2 column3
2 1 2

This view could be used for analytics app further

Research direction

Start by locating the views and Filter section implementation in the Nextcloud Tables app, then determine how selected columns and operators are represented. The issue's example describes a summarized result table; done would require configurable filters, a summarize option, and the corresponding aggregated output for the selected data.
