By lsmith:

I may split up the instantiation and render() steps into separate functions so implementers have time to interact with the View instances before they are rendered. One scenario this might be useful for is changing the rowspans on nested headers.

There's probably more wrong here, as well, since I'd like to support passing a View instance to the `headerView` config, but I'll need to provide it with the `

` node and parsed data before calling render. The current View implementations don't yet support this use case.
