I think the idea is not difficult to implement. I'm not sure if there's enough "market" for it, but it's very simple: to keep those letters (t, c, r and h) in variables and use the variables in the code (in the markup rule and in the tables function). That way, the letters could be changed as easily as all markups, without touching the tables function. (The same could be done with [if] and [else] but conditionals are used by webmasters, not by mere editors, so there's no real need for internationalization.) I'll try this and post the code. The alternative non-text markup for simple tables, a la WikiCreole, is an independent issue I'll like to tinker with, nothing to do with the translation of the current table markup.
