I will try to sketch a proposal for a simple syntax for entering tables.
Having just painstakingly worked on Las Vegas/Climate, I can say that I second the proposal for a simplified use of tables. I looked at the code, and realized that this is an option I can set. So I have for now turned it ON, unless someone comes up with a very good reason why we shouldn't.
The HTML syntax is not too bad, and people can't really do very much evil with it. Edit this page to see how I made this table in html.
| Item one | Item two |
| Item three | Item four |
