me too on spreadsheets are challenging in org [but powerful].  i
wonder what would make them more intuitive.

i use them infrequently, so i have to re-learn them when i use them.

it would be really neat if we could do something like c-c ' that pulls
up a more immediately intuitive interface.  maybe an ses mode type
spreadsheet?  for some tasks, some might even prefer a regular
spreadsheet whose serialized dot files get stored in an org block.
but that would not show the table in org, which you want also.
