It would be fairly simple functionality to add, but it is not there
currently.  The only somewhat tricky part would be parsing R1C1
style references.  I left of implementing that because I had not
looked at how to represent ranges or full cols/rows

    - A1:B2    =>  R1C1:R2C2 ?
    - A:A      =>  C1:C1 ?

Everything else
    - adding the ui toggle
    - persisting the toggle state
    - a hook to change the expression rendering

all exist and could easily be extended
