I'm currently working around it in `nginx` with additional location blocks:

```

    location /datasette/ {
        proxy_pass         http://127.0.0.1:8001/;
        proxy_redirect     off;
        include proxy_params;
    }

    location /dna-protein-genome/ {
        proxy_pass         http://127.0.0.1:8001/dna-protein-genome/;
        proxy_redirect     off;
        include proxy_params;
    }

    location /rna-protein-genome/ {
        proxy_pass         http://127.0.0.1:8001/rna-protein-genome/;
        proxy_redirect     off;
        include proxy_params;
    }
```

The 2nd and 3rd above are my databases. This works, but I have a small problem with URLs like `/rna-protein-genome?params....` that I could fix with some more nginx munging. I seem to do this sort of thing once every 5 years and then have to look it all up again.

I still would prefer posting at a subdirectory but the subdomain seems simpler at the moment.

Today I found the setting to truncate cells, but it applies to all cells. In my case I have text columns that can have many thousands of characters. I was wondering whether the metadata JSON would be an appropriate place to indicate how columns are displayed (on a col-by-col basis). E.g., I'd like to be able to specify that only 20 chars of a given column be shown, and the font be monospace.
