Python Support for Column Headers

I have been playing around with this library and the original textract-response-parser. I found that TRP doesn't support returning table_titles. So I looked at textractor, which supports titles but not column_headers.

Are there plans to add column headers to be created with the table object?

Column headers have a setter and return property under the table entity, however the column_headers setter doesn't seem to be accessed in the response parser.

Where I think this would exist in the parser:

amazon-textract-textractor/textractor/parsers/response_parser.py

Line 1013 in 8cf3759

for table in page_tables:

Functions for table exist here:

amazon-textract-textractor/textractor/entities/table.py

Line 152 in 8cf3759

def column_headers(self) -> Dict[str, List[TableCell]]:

Screenshot of my debugger. Column_headers register as true in the table_cells, but not populating in the column_headers field
