Thanks. Some comments follow.

The following doesn't look like "table operations" to me. Maybe 3.1
could be "Table syntax" and merged with both "column width and
alignment" and "column groups".

They are not very long parts anyway.

3.2 could stay "The built-in table editor"

WDYT?

OK.

Is this new section really useful? It doesn't help much as a category.
I think "The Orgtbl minor mode" and "Org plot" can stay one level above.

Sounds good.
