 `WP_Privacy_Requests_Table` (and its 2 sub-classes
 `WP_Privacy_Data_Removal_Requests_List_Table` and
 `WP_Privacy_Data_Export_Requests_List_Table`) lack some of the "extension"
 points that other list tables (e.g., `WP_Posts_List_Table`) in core have.

 A short list of what is missing includes:

 * an `extra_tablenav()` method and the `restrict_manage_xxx` and
 `manage_xxx_extra_tablenav` actions that accompany it
 * the ability to add custom columns (via a `xxx_columns` filter)
 * the ability to add/remove row actions (via a `xxx_row_actions` filter)
 * the ability to add "display states" (via a `display_xxx_states` filter)

 I do **not** have a concrete use-case for needing any of the above **at
 this time**, but feel that **all** core list tables should support them
 **unless there is a concrete reason not to**.

 I'll add a patch shortly.
