   - Keyword argument ``level`` is added to :meth:`.Styler.hide_index` and :meth:`.Styler.hide_columns` for optionally controlling hidden levels in a MultiIndex (:issue:`25475`)
   - Global options have been extended to configure default ``Styler`` properties including formatting and encoding and mathjax options and LaTeX (:issue:`41395`)
+  - Naive sparsification is now possible for LaTeX without the multirow package (:issue:`43369`)
 
    Formerly Styler relied on ``display.html.use_mathjax``, which has now been replaced by ``styler.html.mathjax``.
