mistercrunch opened a new issue #3253: [sqllab] recognize JSON columns and display nicely
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/3253
 
 
   Often times a column contains JSON as a string. It would be awesome to recognize valid json strings and give the option to display in some more readable form.
   
   Could be as simple as looking for whether the string starts with `{` and attempt to parse it if that's the case. Maybe allow display in a modal with nice syntax highlighting.
