In my opinion, a table should have a header record as a block! value
something like Rebol's function specifier dialect. For example:
[First_Name [string!] "First Name" Last_Name [string!] "Last Name"
Telephone [issue!]]
That way, the table's rows more easily scanned with a function having a
function input specifier that is the table header block! value. (Which
reminds me that I must get this ready to publish as well).
