Functionally the issue here is that the import routine lists the tables in the
form as HTML_n where n relates the nth table reference in the form.  The problem
form most users is that they have to use trial and error to work out which to
load as they have absolutely no cues.  In fact if you do a show source, find an
element in the table that you want and search back counting the "<table" tags,
this gives you the "n" you need.

A GUI would be nice as per Excel, but the main thing is that the user can simply
reference the table that is wanted.  A simpler functional alternative to the
full GUI might be to parse the DOM and append the text strings from the first
row so in the case of http://www.rate.co.uk/exrates.html for example, instead of
listing 
HTML_13
you might get
HTML_13 Country Currency $US £Stg €Euro ¥Yen (x100) 

This is enough to allow you to choose the table.
