Concerning other topics, this shouldn't take that much as in my post above :).

1. Thanks for link on Mélange. Honestly, I would say that I know some things about IT technical stuff, but even for me it's quite hard to understand all these wiki's crazy tables (btw. I have never edited a wiki before). I have to admit that when I read your discussion with Kata, I was often getting lost... Well, I would like to sort things out from that Mélange article: current dual cost appearance is based on nested tables (or on row-spanning? or both? or something else?).

And concerning table appearance itself. It looks like we have 3 possible approaches there (current state, former T1 demo, former T2 demo) and everything has its own pros and cons. Personally, I can't say one is significantly better than the others. Problem of current state is with sorting (confusingly breaking current table layout and its horizontal lines). Problem of former T1 demo is that others don't like horizontal lines inside dual cost entries. Problem of former T2 demo is that we lost current nice dual cost entries... Well, if you are sure that current state is the best we could possibly have (there isn't anything more which could be done about it), then let's close this topic.

2. Thanks for alignment demonstration on first table of T1 template. 'Right-align-everything' in cost & level columns looks perfectly ok to me (even with 2 text rows). I definitely like it!

3. To-do. I understand this is nothing easy and it takes its time...

4. OK. Furthermore, I previously noticed some footnote marking incosistencies in dual cost items (somewhere it was labeled like 2.0 and 2.1 and elsewhere 4 & 5). Later on, I looked on it again and find out this as fixed.

5. Ok, your arguments seem to be pretty convincing :).

6. I understand your point that this coloured background should catch user's attention (in order to encourage them to fill-in or verify missing values). Definitely agreed! However I still feel that curent colours are a little too excessive (as it's really difficult to concentrate on something else in table). I would recommend to try find some balance between these 2 opposite approaches.
