Description

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

The app doesn't maintain the trash bin, the export to CSV is not working under some conditions. This may lead to the potential corruption of the data without any possibility to restore it.

Describe the solution you'd like

Please, add the possibility to have automatic and manual versions of tables, when a user can restore the table on a specific date. Additionally, let a user click on a button to save certain version (including the current one) in the form of CSV table.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the CSV export failure and reviewing how table deletion and the trash bin currently behave. Done should include automatic and manual table versions, restoration by date, and CSV export for a selected version including the current one.
