I know that I'm not the only person using typo3 ;).

That is true and I know that there a situations that cannot be handled
with the current wizard, but I don't see how e.g. the htmlarea-wizard
would fullfill "my" mentioned requests of completely seperating the
content from the design. So if there will be a new table-wizard for the
standard table-CE please consider to make it somehow configurable to act
like the old one. Alternativly there could be a new CE - or a switch
inside the table-CE (dropdown) between "normal table" and "complex table".
