Description

If there are amount of complex data in datatable, I think the following two features will be very helpful.

  1. An option to show header both on top and bottom.
  2. Make header on top fixed when user scrolls down. (like this one: http://legacy.datatables.net/extras/fixedheader/)

Both of the features can avoid showing double vertical scrollbars and make users know the title of each column. (browser scrollbar and datatable scrollbar)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the existing table component to understand how headers are rendered. Then implement a sticky header using CSS position: sticky and a bottom header by duplicating the header row in the footer. Ensure both features work with scrolling. Refer to the fixed header example from legacy datatables for inspiration.
