what is needed is a spreadsheet where j or apl can be invoked in each
cell and that could be added to an existing spreadsheet as an option
if there is any open code spreadsheet application

I agree. I think that spreadsheets for many (me, too, sometimes) are
sheets of electronic paper. It's easy to change the number in a
particular cell without worrying about the other numbers or about the
syntax of amend. With a spreadsheet, the numbers are in the
foreground;
with J, the functions seem to be. That's generally good, but
sometimes
it's comforting to write down the numbers and have them sit there,
waiting to be transformed or perhaps edited.
