Future API considerations

The aim of this page is to keep track of API 'regrets' - things that we would like to make more consistent but can't due to preserving backward-compatibility. These can then help inform future APIs, for example if we develop new sub-packages to replace old ones.

QTable vs Table

The QTable class was introduced because table columns with units act like quantities most of the time but not always, and we wanted to have a table class where columns with units are actually quantities and act like that by default.
