With automatic column alignment (set to
"auto"
by default in thegt()
function), columns (and their column labels) will be set on the basis of the content in the columns. The aim of this PR is to refine that a bit by changing the alignments of dates and time (to"right"
alignment) but, also, making predominantly number-based strings align to the right. This ensures that string-based dates/times/datetimes receive a better appearance before formatting (so even if formatting isn't necessary, it'll still look formatted in terms of alignment).
