Subject: org-table bindings available outside org tables too?

Hi,

We have a lot of org-table specific functions bound in org-mode-map whether
or not the point is actually in an org table.

Reference[1].

Is there a specific reason to have those bindings available globally in an
org mode buffer?

To prevent that, I have come up with this[2].

The idea is to use context-aware key mapping[3]. Also the info node:
"(elisp) Extended Menu Items".

Here is what binding "C-c SPC" looks like when using the bind-keys macro
from bind-key.el[4].

(bind-keys
 :map org-mode-map
 :filter (org-at-table-p)
  ("C-c SPC" . org-table-blank-field))

Below is the same without bind-key.el dependency:

(define-key org-mode-map (kbd "C-c SPC")
  '(menu-item "" nil :filter
              (lambda (&optional _)
                (when (org-at-table-p)
                  'org-table-blank-field))))
