Feature Request: reshape by instrument, then instance

[Akeem832]

For repeating instruments, "column per instance" reshapes first by field, then by instance.
For a concomitant medications form, this makes it hard to read the data by for each instance in a report:

Could you consider adding the option to reshape by instrument, then instance?

I see what you mean there @Akeem832. Unfortunately, giving a field-then-instance column ordering option would not be an easy thing to implement, and I would worry about the layout/appearance with potentially long field labels repeated many times (although note that you can override them with a tag from v2.3.0).

The other thing I wonder is that if you want form fields together, and an easy way to scan across instances, then maybe the regular, non-reshaped, row-per-instance form is more appropriate?
