I am aware of a number of these workarounds.
The specific one you are proposing does not work for me as the markdown tables
are in collaboratively edited documents and I can’t get the other authors to do
any special dance around the tables; orgtbl-mode has to just work.
Besides, a 83-line workaround for what can be done seamlessly by changing one
line of code?
(Yes, it would be nice to also preserve the column alignments, but we already
have a solution that gets around that limitation.)
