Drill-down feature for PivotGrid
Currently the Kendo PivotGrid always starts out with one tuple for each dimension on rows and columns, and you can recursively expand members to get to their children. However, even with a moderately deep hierarchy, this quickly consumes a lot of screen real estate.

It would be useful to have the option to drill-down in addition to expand. I understand that it's not an easy feature to design and implement, mainly due to the merging of cells that occurs when expanding, which is also the reason why the grid must always have one single member on the first level of a dimension on rows/columns; but I'm hoping someone can come up with an idea that would make it easier.

Cheers!

I was able to get something close to the desired result working - expanding the top level behaves normally, but expanding any child replaces that dimension in the pivotgrid configuration with that member (with expand = true), so that member becomes the top level member. It works well enough when you only have one dimension on an axis, but starts breaking down whenever you try to do it for multiple dimensions on the same axis...
