Another tricky example

  |  1 |
  |----|
  |  2 |
  |  3 |
  |  4 |
  |----|
  |  5 |
  |----|
  | 14 |
  #+TBLFM: @6=vsum(@I..@III)

What if we insert a hline between |3| and |4|? 

I assume it should become "@I..@IIII". Yet, the difference between it
and the case before is subtle, and hard to explain.

That leads me to the next question: should we really mess with this?
