Maybe something like below? (100% untested)
(defun org-delete-forward-char (N)
"Like `delete-forward-char', insert whitespace at field end in tables.
When deleting, in tables this function will insert whitespace in front
of the previous \"|\" separator, to keep the table aligned. The table
will still be marked for re-alignment if the field did fill the entire
column, because, in this case the deletion might narrow the column."
(interactive "p")
(save-match-data
(if (and (= N 1)
(not overwrite-mode)
(not (org-region-active-p))
(not (eq (char-after) ?|))
(looking-at-p ".*?|")
(org-at-table-p))
(org-delete-char 1)
(funcall-interactively #'delete-forward-char N)
(org-fix-tags-on-the-fly))))
