Right now the Headers column is essentially useless because the json renderer doesn't seem to want to display beyond one level of depth so you just see "[{...},{...},etc]". Can you make this more usable? Maybe add some kind of expansion ui where it will pretty print the headers in multiple lines?

The header details can be expanded by clicking the ">" arrow to the left of the "[{...},{...},etc]"

I think this could be a bit more intuitive though, thanks for the feedback!

Ah. Yes its not very intuitive. I would personally have used a "+". But I think the bigger issue that makes it unintuitive is that the cursor CSS is set on the entire <p> tag of the condensed JSON, but the click event is only set on the ">". If you set the click on the entire <p> as well, then it becomes more obvious that clicking the row does something.
