I agree. I'm now making table formating on org-mode and literate
computing on Grafoscopio. If I need to prioritize a feature that would
attract more diverse users to Leo would be literate computing. That has
been our case with Grafoscopio and our Data Week hackathon+workshop[1]
have participants from several life venues and disciplines: Jorunalism,
philosophy, communication studies, developers, teachers, students, among
others. They're more attracted by the interactive data storytelling
features that by table formating.

If I would have to choose only one feature to be enabled in Leo 5.6 that
would be literate computing (even if is limited "only" to Python).

While it would be pretty great to have full auto-reformatting ascii
org-mode tables my inclination is that there are higher priority
org-mode features that should be tackled first (for example,
functionality enabling literate programming).

I use Leo primarily as an information manager (as well as for
writing LaTeX), and I very frequently need to capture some tabular
information. For me this would be a central feature for Leo as
PIM. (It's actually what kept me from switching from Emacs/OrgMode
to Leo for several months. Now I use Leo anyway, but keep larger
sections of tabular data in LibreOffice Calc or SQLite, or use
some plain text separator in a node body. Both of these
workarounds are suboptimal.)
So I'm hoping it's important to others as well, and will turn out
to be doable!
In any case, it's very nice to see all the recent activity.

Just for curiosity, I wonder if the Babel approach taken
by org-mode is client sever [1]. I have the "feeling" is
not, but I have not still read the papers.

I would consult Babelsdocs

academic paper ;-)
Thanks. I will read both ;-).
