Hi,
I have released version 4.65 at
http://www.astro.uva.nl/~dominik/Tools/org.
Among other things, this release provides a way to maintain LaTeX tale
using the orgtbl mode.
Enjoy!
Changes in Version 4.65
-----------------------
* Overview
- Orgtbl can be used to maintain tables in LaTeX, and in any other
mode
- Editing Lisp formulas for table improved.
- Better structure for HTML exported tables.
- New "calculation" marker "/" to mark lines that should not be
exported.
* Detailed description of changes
- You can use orgtbl mode to maintain a LaTeX table, or pretty much
any table in any mode.
This does *not* work by making Orgtbl aware of LaTeX syntax. That
would be a box of Pandora I am not willing to open. Instead, you
use a normal Orgtbl-mode table, and a converter program to
automatically place a LaTeX version of the table into the correct
spot in the LaTeX file. The orgtbl-mode table can be maintained
inside the same file, in a block comment.
I am providing a translators for LaTeX, HTML, and TeXInfo. For
other applications, you need to write one yourself - but that is
not hard if you start from the LaTeX version and just modify it.
Please read the manual for details.

arbitrary-syntax
Thanks to Thomas Baumann for triggering this development through
a request for a table-to-LaTeX converter.
- In the special buffer to edit the formulas of a table (created
with "C-c '", there is now better support for editing Lisp
formulas. TAB and M-TAB work like in an Emacs Lisp buffer,
indenting lines and completing lisp symbols. With the cursor on
a line defining a complex Lisp formula, a first press on TAB will
convert the formula into a pretty-printed version with proper
linebreaks and indentation. A second TAB folds the line back to
the compact form.
- Tables in HTML export have now additional structure elements
defined. The header (before the first hline) is wrapped into
<thead>..</thead>, and each part of the body (as separated in
org-mode by hlines) is wrapped into <tbody>..</tbody> tags. I
have also changed the CSS style for <td> fields and the value of
`org-export-html-table-tag' to get cleaner tables. Basically,
tables now have horizontal lines only where needed, and no
vertical lines at all, as generally recommended for tables in
printed text. I like the new look, but I am not sure if this
change will find general approval, please throw in your view if
you like. Thanks to Scott for driving this, and to goud-H for
pointing me to the row grouping in tables.
- In a table with calculation markers in the first column, you can
now also put "/" into the first column. It indicates that this
line should not be exported. The foremost application for this
are lines containing only "<N>" markers for narrowing columns.
