I think of BEAUTIFY as a debug tool, although perhaps I underestimate it.
You can make a table with html (and html helpers) for complete control over
each field, or you can use something like
{{=SQLTABLE(records, truncate=45, headers={'mytable.id':"My Event ID", //
other fields here //} ) }}
(I think BEAUTIFY ends up as a table, it just has defaults that may not be
useful for user-facing code)
