Markdown Table Formatting

[mdaviesnz]

Environment

• Python version: 3.5.2
• NetBox version: 2.4.7

Proposed Functionality

Improve/add formatting of markdown tables in comments fields.

Currently tables from markdown in comment fields appear without formatting and nice spacing making it difficult to read. Applying the already loaded bootstrap CSS style on the table improves this.

Using chrome dev tools I added class="table" to the second table tag for this example:

Not sure if it taking the full width of the panel is desirable but this approaches the extent of my CSS knowledge already. There might be a more suitable style in bootstrap and perhaps there's a better way to do this with CSS otherwise?

Use Case

I use tables to document information given by circuit providers which doesn't otherwise go into existing fields on the circuit objects.

It seems that Markdown doesn't support table classes, so simply adding class="table" to rendered Markdown won't work. However, we can add a bit of custom CSS to clean things up.
