Cell-level conditional formatting used to be one cell, one rule at a time, which falls apart the minute you have a dozen columns and a few data-quality rules.
Now there's a rule panel: build conditions, combine them with AND/OR, and apply the result to the whole row or to specific cells. A condition can compare a column to a static value or to another column ('If [Spend] > [Budget]'). Rules live in a manage panel where you can re-order them; first match wins.
Icon-as-format (showing a ⚠ glyph instead of just colour) is tracked as its own follow-up, planned with no committed date. The first cut is colour plus bold/italic.

The design goal was cross-column comparison without making you write a formula for the common cases: rules are a small expression, so 'If [Spend] > [Budget]' just works. Formatting is per-sheet, not per-user, so everyone on the sheet sees the same highlights.
Shipped. There's a rule panel where you build conditions, combine them with AND/OR, and apply the result per-row or to specific cells. Conditions can compare a column to a static value or to another column. Icon-as-format stays a separate follow-up.
