Option to turn off array flattering

[fruit]

It would be nice to have an option not to flat an arrays, because it hard to use them in format-data callback. You wouldn't receive a nice array to it, just a null value.

To clearly understand my idea, here is a working example (Sorry, no time for forking...)

Option declaration:

<table data-flat-arrays="false"> ... </table>

@fruit: Seems easy enough.

Also, to chime in, it would be nice to have a data-flat-max-level option. I.e

{
    model: {
        field1: "some value",
        field2: "some value",
        noTable: {
            field1: "some value",
            field2: "some value",
        }
    }
}

data-flat-max-level="2" would produce:

{
    "model.field1": "some value",
    "model.field2": "some value",
    "model.noTable.": {
        "field1": "some value",
        "field2": "some value"
    }
}

@jtrumbull: good idea. Additionally, it would be fine to define data-field-flat-max-level on a table's row-level:

Row representation:

{
    "username": "alice81",
    "profile": {
        "first_name": "Alice",
        "last_name": "Smith",
        "address": {
            "street": "Meyrin Road 385, 1217",
            "town": "Meyrin",
            "country": "Switzerland"
        }
    }
}

Table sample:

<table class="table">
        <thead>
        <tr>
            <th data-field="username">User Name</th>
            <th data-field="profile.first_name">First Name</th>
            <th data-field="profile.last_name">Last Name</th>
            <th data-field="profile.address" data-field-flat-max-level="2" data-formater="addresseFormatter">Addresse</th>
        </tr>
        </thead>
    </table>

function addresseFormatter(value) { 
    return value.country + ' ' + value.street;
}
