Yes I agree,  I would have preferred the solution of using our  
filterable dynamic tables as proposed by guillaume on 
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/NewWysiwygEditorInterface

The proposed design would be perfect for an iPhone I think but I think  
we have a bit more screen estate when on a standard computer.
