 I have a requirement table tag might be extended to
incoorporate.

1) I have a number of images that I want to display. 2)
I will use a decorator the display the image in each of
the table cells. 3) The images are in order and the
natural order to look at them would be across and
down. 4) I might want to only display a particular
number of rows per screen or I might only want to
display a particular number of images per screen and
then choose to navigate by rows or number of images.
5) If my image is a banner I might want to display
banner alone in a row in which case I would want the
additional cells on the current row being processed to
be empty if the row isn't already empty (I suppose
this would be specified in the decorator). 6) I might
want banner to span a certain number of rows (I
suppose this would be specified in the decorator)

Proposed extensions:
If displaying one column in a List, rather than
displaying the column downwards.
1) I would like the ability to display the column across
and down. So if you define the number of columns as 3
(you would need a way to define this) the table has the
table would fill in as follows.

row 1 col 1, row 1 col 2, row 1 col 3,row 2 col 2 etc

2) There should be some way to do a skipped column
depending on the data in the row. For example:

table fills
row 1 col 1, row 1 col 2 and now you would usually
fill in row 1 col 3 but because of the data you are
about to use or data in the previous column you
decide that you want to put data on the next row
instead so you fill in row 2 col 1

3) There should be a way to define colspan depending
on the data you are inserting.

4) the "showing subsets", "auto paging", "sorting" etc
should still work but user should have the option of
navigating by rows as well as items. So in configuration
you would say on a page you wanted to display a max
of 5 rows you might also say that you want to display
a max of 20 items. The final display on the page would
be the number of rows if the number of items would
cause more rows than the max and it would be the
number of items if you haven't exceeded the row
maximum but not more that the max number of items.
