Anyone who plays with the symbol structure of tbl has got to be
crazy. However, in principle you should be able to define a
macro using one of the @Cell symbols like this:
import @TblSetup @Tbl aformat
macro @MyCell { @Cell paint { yellow } rule { yes } }
I really doubt whether the world needs a way to do this. This
is what all those options to @TblSetup and @Tbl are for.
If you wanted this for all @Cell symbols you would have to
define one importing aformat, one importing bformat, etc.,
and each would need a different name.
If it doesn't work, I don't care!
