When you expand the entity, you can currently see field name and data type.

I'd like to see these added as columns: Min, Max, Average, StandardDeviation, Count, NullCount, DistinctCount.
With Table.Profile(), all work with text or number except Average and StandardDeviation.

This would help creators with data validation and would help consumers with details about the entity before loading.
