Hello,
There seems to be quite a bit of confusion.

I am not interested in editing the exported HTML file (conflicts the point of using org-mode)
I did not say that HTML should be edited manually. I said that ox-html probably needs an update that inserts the col tag with user-specified col-classes.
I can add a class to the <table> tag with
#+ATTR_HTML: :class my-table
Correct. That class won't help here. You need a class that scopes the individual columns.
But I don’t know how to add a new class to <col> in org-mode; or how to define a custom column (one that is now <r>, <l>, <c>).
Right, that needs to be investigated. Most likely, at the moment, we cannot set individual classes for each column.
No point in CSS-restyling default class="org-center", class="org-left", etc. … this would affect columns in other tables
That's a CSS problem. You can set a unique class for a table using the attr_html syntax you showed above and then set CSS rules only for that table using ".my-table td+td" and so on.
The org-* classes you mentioned can be easily overridden or used along with the new classes, based on how the CSS rules are written.
