I don't know exactly. I never missed it. Using HTML DSLs like HAML,
slim, JADE tables can be written equally fast:

- data = [["C programming language", 234], ['other lang', 345]]
%table
- for d in data
%tr
%td = d[0]
%td ='$'+d[1]
%tr
%td total
%td = sum( ... )

And if you can't use those for whatever reason you can still use one of
- zencoding
- sparkup
plugins
Zen coding such a HTML table is as much work as

table>tr*4>td,td<c-y> (or such)
and filling in the values.

If you really need this feature I'd recommend installing Emacs and get
vi emulation layers such as "evil". Sorry about that. I don't think any
Vim plugin provides that level of abstraction - I may be wrong though.
