One thing that's still bugging me though is why the table would not hang with the older version of org-mode. As far as I can tell nothing has changed around tables between 9.5.2 and 9.5.4. Do you have any idea what could cause the difference in behaviour? 

`org-string-width` is now using temporary buffer to calculate width precisely to pixels.
