My understanding is that Runrev did pretty much nothing to address the table field issues. For my 2 cents, I think they need a whole new Table Object, not just a glorified field. That would be a huge undertaking, and I think they would have to abandon the old table field which would break some people's apps.

In my opinion a table object would need to be able to connect to a data source, like an SQL database and plain text files, have filtering applied, be sortable by clicking column headers, have disk caching so large databases could be addressed, have font control, at least down to the row/column level, pretty much everything you would expect from a table.

I think this could probably be accomplished to some extent with an addon, but I don't know how you would get it to interact seamlessly with the ide. Ideally, it needs to be something that Runrev does in the nuts and bolts of the runrev engine.

I for one would LOVE to see such a thing, but I do not think it is in the short term future.

Do table fields work reliably now or are they still to be avoided?
