Feature Request

Is your feature request related to a problem or unsupported use case? Please describe.
When you add tables to Docs they are usually limited by width of the page, especially for bigger tables.

The horizontal scrolling bar is at the bottom of the table. Using the table is in this case not ideal.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be beneficial
a) To allow for exceptions in blocks (like an extend button)
Image
b) to render the table as preview and by clicking on it you have a separate window which is easier to navigate, maybe a separate window for the table which is scrollable with the browser scroll bar
c) an Embed where one can add Tables ... and the embedded app for example grist or Excel are the UIs to navigate better.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Discovery, Documentation, Adoption, Migration Strategy
