Enable printing table headers when no data available

It would be helpful to enable printing a table header when no data is available and the NoDataMessage is set. We frequently have tables with one or more static headers that may not have any data - depending on the supplied report parameters. We set the NoDataMessage to display an appropriate message, however, we would like to continue displaying the table title and column headers.

We currently accomplish this with a Panel + Table but that is inelegant. It is more designer friendly to design the table once and reposition and resize it as necessary.

Here is an example screenshot of the issue we have now

Hello Ryan,

Thank you for the suggestion and the detailed reasoning behind the request.

Indeed, while it is possible to achieve the same effect with a panel and a table positioned specifically, an out-of-the-box solution would be easier to use and would require less additional work from the person designing the report. 

Regards,
