From #1366
Problem:
In our setup, neither germplasm nor plant number alone uniquely identify an observation unit. The observation unit ID is technically unique but too long to be displayed comfortably in the grid view.
Proposal:
Allow users to select multiple columns (e.g., Germplasm + Plant Number) as row headers in the grid view.
This would make it easier to navigate and identify plots or plants in replicated trials.
Additional Use Case:
In some field trials, we have special lines that require advanced sampling (e.g., lines with special sampling protocols to sample for additional tissues).
Being able to add an additional identifying column (e.g., “Sampling Type” or “Special Treatment”) would make it easier for field workers to recognize these lines directly in the grid view.
