Hi,
I am using org-mode 4.44, and I wish it would work with
delete-selection-mode.

There are two ways to handle this.
1) Either you stop org-mode from taking over all the commands inserting
letters and deleting single characters. This means not using the
optimized version of the table editor:
(setq org-enable-table-editor t)
The disadvantage is that in tables, each letter typed now dis-aligns
the table and you need to wait for the next align (triggered by TAB,
for example) for things to look nice again.
2) Or you make delete-selection-mode aware of org-mode's special
commands:
(eval-after-load "delsel"
'(progn
(put 'org-self-insert-command 'delete-selection t)
(put 'orgtbl-self-insert-command 'delete-selection t)
(put 'org-delete-char 'delete-selection 'supersede)
(put 'org-delete-backward-char 'delete-selection 'supersede)))
Hope this helps.
