Support for tables

[Itamar Ostricher]

Best effort - convert HTML tables to wiki-tables, always try simplest form first (so users using source-editing are not overwhelmed...)

[Franz]

(In [10922]) fixes #8850, #8851, #8852: implemented a lot of new functionalities, so named this version 1.1dev

Well, table insertion works, but I wouldn't say it suffices to solve this ticket.

It is important that the plugin adheres to simplest-form-first, so it is feasible to edit the table in source mode as well.

For example, a simple 2x2 table with heading (works in 0.12) like this:

Name	ID
MyName	#1

should take the following simplest form:

||= Name =||= ID =||
|| MyName || #1 ||

In my point of view it is most important that all features are implemented. So if you would like to have lists in a table cell, this only works with td-macro. But I haven't known until now that you could mix simple form and td-macro as the uploaded example shows (works in Trac 0.12).

The technical problem is to determine, when it is feasible to use ​simple table and when you need td-macro. As far as I know there are only these elements, which only works well with ​td-macro (all listed items are working in current version of CKEditorPlugin):

• ordered and unordered lists in cell
• new table in cell
• multi-lines of code-block
• horizontal line in table cell
• Discussion Citations (is currenlty NOT working in CKEditorPlugin)
• several lines in one cell (can also be managed by adding [[BR]] macro in simple table)
