Hi Hans! That would be awesome feature to have but as Jeroen have noted it's simply impossible for some case. SMW+ had editable tables as query results, but they have the assumptions that the property values comes directly from the page. It's usually not so: properties often come from template parameters in wikis that use Semantic Forms. It's really an exiting possibility to get the extension done for this case. ----- Yury Katkov, WikiVote
