Hi,

This is looking much better now :-). Couple of thoughts and a bug:

- Only the TextFormatter seems to handle both [null] and [default] values.
Shouldn't all formatters do so (including Json and Checkmark)? For example,
"serial" columns currently get displayed as [null] when left blank, but I
would expect to see [default].

- I would suggest we put [null] and [default] in a lighter colour - #999999.

- With the feature test patch added, I seem to be consistently getting the
following failure (immediately after your new tests run):
