Similar to how you can specify a column for the selection, it'd be nice if you could specify a column for the expand / collapse column so that you can provide a header value and handle a header value click change event.
The idea being that I could mass expand or collapse master detail rows similar to how I can mass select rows.
Here is another approach for adding custom Expand/Collapse column (at any position) with the ability for customizing the cells and the headerCells:
