With all due respect to the considerable thought and effort you put into this, the ergonomics of this approach are hideous. Why would I ever care about the styling elements when I'm just trying to do some exploratory data analysis. This is exactly why things like Jupyter notebooks excel. Regardless kudos to your curiosity and implementing alternate ideas.

>when I'm just trying to do some exploratory data analysis

Isn't the point to have a unified platform to do exploratory data analysis which can then easily be published? It's not for throwaway Jupyter notebooks.

I think there's great value for an alternative to Jupyter notebooks that aren't just throwaway. The UX being really trash right now is something which can be improved IMO. The question is whether this setup is better than the JSON madness in Jupyter notebooks... I'm leaning yes personally.
