After years of avoiding it, I think I'm going to start looking at SpreadsheetView for more flexibility and to appease my Excel-compulsive users. Does anybody have recent experience with it and have an opinion on its current state? I may contribute some DSL's for it.

I got really angry at some of the behaviours in TableView around tab and escape that drove me to write a lot of stupid code before largely switching to SpreadSheet Views. I've like what we've done of them so far, though it has resulted in a lot of index math which im not a fan of. Things get nasty when you try to merge cells.

Good to know. I am sure the index math can be absracted with a well thought design. But still your thoughts give me flashbacks to my Excel VBA days 😫
