---to do this: I put "dummy rows" around the "12W" row--"dummy rows" have all the cells empty--and then just deleted the "separator rows"---took less than a minute.
A little Ck Cy magic---and good old <Tab> key.
As far as the TeX ideas; making it display as a multiline cell in export--thats a great idea too, I've made o-ton-o LaTeX tables--once you do this process Bastien suggests, you could probably write a simple program to munge the .tex file and then reuse the same method over and over. TeX is great at displaying multiline text---its the best for that---regardless of the font.
