@corneadoug I think its not right/user friendly way to have download data
functionality.
You liked approach of including download buttons in "settings".
But I believe **"Settings" is something to provide configuration/setting
options and not to provide any functionality**.

commented rightly that

hidden in report mode and simply absent when you link directly to the paragraph
as an iframe
So I believe it's not a good idea to include buttons in settings as many
community member don't liked it.
Secondly if DataTables provides export functionality which works and is
extensible, than we should use it instead of writing our own way to do data
export, this I mentioned earlier as well...

Also about extra UI space, its not an issue for using datatable or any of
its functionality, but its general issue and to fix it we need to have a
different PR...
If I look different notebook implementation, than the way they handle this
issue is like below...
They are providing all buttons at bottom of table, and zeppelin provides
same on top of table.
