 OK, don't bother to answer, it was a silly question that can be answered by
muself after looking in the code again. Forget it.

 I thought we can introduce a special mode in which only the given table will
be displayed, but with horiz. scrolling allowed (activated by activating
special link above the table).

 I didn't looked into the code, but will it emit empty line before and after
the table, and may be one horz. line after the table header (this will allow
drawing borders around the table later)? If not, can you try to emebed
(without testing) the logic (possibly wrapped into cpp conditionals) that will
emmit blank line before and after a table, and after the header?
 (As I understood your patch, it doesn't change the number of lines in
the text wrt old "table rendering version").
