Hi Achim, hi Lawrence,

this looks pretty good.  One thing I found missing is that
header lines should be exempted from column formulas being
applied.  This works for the headlines at the top of the
table, but not in the middle.  Try C-c C-c in the TBLFM
line of:

| aaa | bbb | ccc | ddd |
|-----+-----+-----+-----|
| ddd | eee | fff |  41 |
| ddd | eee | fff |  41 |
| ddd | eee | fff |  41 |
|~~~~~+~~~~~+~~~~~+~~~~~|
| ddd |     | fff | ddd |
|-----+-----+-----+-----|
| ddd | eee | fff |  41 |
| ddd | eee | fff |  41 |
| xxx | yyy | zzz |  41 |
#+TBLFM: $4=41

Also documentation in the manual is missing - one
or two sentences in the right place should be enough.
