Feature request: Add support for anchor tags in LinkColumn type for column_config

Using Streamlit

I’d like to request a feature to add anchor tag support for anchor tags as a Column Configuration for rendering a dataframe, which would allow jumping to other parts of the same webpage very quickly.

Currently, streamlit can do quite a lot to deal with URLs, but only if they are external links. I can get similar capability in st.table, however I lose out on the nice styling and other capabilities of an st.dataframe, such as applying other column configurations.

I’m wondering if this could be achieved either by modifying LinkColumn to allow for anchor tags as an input argument, or a new Column Configuration type that works with markdown.

I wonder if you could get this with a Markdown column. Here’s a feature request to upvote: Provide a new dataframe column type to insert Markdown text · Issue #10211 · streamlit/streamlit · GitHub

Interesting idea, can you also open a new issue on GitHub with that specific request? I’m not sure if Markdown columns would help here. Either way, we should also support that in link columns I think.
