Please add the XlsxWriter package to the default Python environment.   Many of the Pandas ExcelWriter functions are not available.  The primary ones I notices are the write and write_string functions of the worksheet class.  These functions would allow for additional descriptive text to be added to Excel exports from spatial dataframes or other pandas dataframes.

Could you provide additional details or an example script of what you're trying to do which isn't possible with the openpyxl driver for pandas only? Looking over the class documentation it doesn't call out limitations of specific drivers, so it'd be helpful to have a case we can evaluate. Ideally we'd like to maintain one library for interacting with XLSX files — as the distribution increases in size, the complexity of managing it increases so we carefully evaluate additions. Thanks!
