Where to request new extension to wikitable?
I'd like to be able to use a subclass, as in the following:

There are three cells in the table above that contain a 1. It would be good if these cells were automatically shaded (as has been manually done in the second row), without additional markup in the cells themselves. I know this to be possible using CSS, so the question is how can this be achieved in wiki?

I'm thinking I need to add

class="wikitable discog plainrowheaders" style="text-align:center;"

or similar. And then discog can be defined elsewhere.

Am I even in the right place to suggest this?

Any way to freeze the top row (header info) of a table?
Is there any way to freeze the top row of a table, the header info for the columns? So that the top row floats down the screen as user scrolls down the table, that is, so that in a table with many rows the viewer can scroll down through the rows to the desired item and still see the column header info.
