Can you describe some use cases? The only one that comes to mind is powering dashboards.

That said, do you support persistent tables or time travel? (E.g., accessing the contents of the view as it was at time t). If not, how should a situation where multiple independent clients read the view be handled? If two people load the same dashboard but see differences based on when the table was read, that might cause confusion.

Yes

No, but I think the changes that need to be made in order to do so are tractable, so I expect we will eventually (I’m not an expert in this area of the code, so please don’t take this as an official statement).
