I recommend you take into consideration the tremendous energy
being applied to Pod by zagap, the author of Pod6Lite, and align
any Rakunian effort with their effort. (As per the reddit thread I
linked to in my previous reply to you in the file format thread.)

This is a great example. Regardless of whether zagap does or
does not intend to implement nested tables, simply *discussing*
this issue with them should be very valuable.
