[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 467 bytes --] I'm writing in RST a lot of documentation, and I noticed that RST-tables are very similar to org-mode tables.

Didn't know about that, thanks!
It's not, however, as convenient as org-mode tables are unfortunately...

Which is why you can switch between table.el and org tables with C-c C-c (to recognize an existing table) and then C-c ~ to convert it between the two formats if possible. You do lose some formatting going back and forth, though.

Very nice thanks a lot!
True some formatting is lost, but already just org-mode-tables.el
automatic conversion is quite nice, and might come handy.
