This is a useful idea, but has not (yet?) been implemented.

One reason why row formulas have not been implemented is that
it is not straight forward to exclude columns from applying the
row formula.

For column formulas, it is natural to exclude the table header.

For now, just insert the formula into every field where you want to 
apply it, like this:

In the first field where you want it, type

   :=vsum(@-II..@-I)

or whatever your formula is.  Then select this text and
copy it with M-w.  Then apply and insert it many times with

TAB C-y TAB C-y ..... C-c C-c
