This is a minor issue for me, though I would like to see something done about it. The thing I would MOST like to see implemented with Plucker (and would gain my eternal commitment :) is decent table handling and display, similar to that in iSilo. I have no idea how hard this would be to implement, or even whether it would need to be addressed in the parser, view or both, but I would really, _really_ like to see it happen one day. Having said that, I commend the people working on all aspects of plucker. It's a very high quality product, and I am very happy using it. Keep up the good work!
