Follow-up Comment #2, bug #44571 (project octave):

Isn't readTable related to classdef?

Parts of the "table" class / type look very much like dataframes.

It seems like some parts of readTable could be implemented as wrappers around
dlmread (and xlsread, once spreadsheet I/O is in core Octave).
A bottleneck is the ability to read and write tables from/to disk (.mat
files). Even for classdef there's no support yet for I/O to e.g., .mat files.

As for the io package, I've looked at implementing dataframe I/O in
combination with spreadsheet I/O some time ago, the concept doesn't look too
daunting.

Do we need to lower severity/priority?
