Display of data that is "almost equal" between rows

• For numbers: e.g. 100.001, 100.002, 100.003, Feature Request: pillar.round = FALSE #97 (comment)
• For strings: e.g. "abcde", "abcdf", "abdfe", Feature Request: pillar.round = FALSE #97 (comment), Show as many characters as necessary for a string column #101

Should we implement a class that applies subtle styling to the parts of strings/numbers that are the same across all columns, and that sets the minimum width accordingly? Should we even move common information to the header?

This could become an extension to num() and char().
