Taking David's example further, here is a first try:

  id |  name   |   description     |      more info
-----+---------+-------------------+-----------------
   6 | Inset   | An inset element  | just one element
   8 | Stories | Another element   | another element
                                   : with 2 lines, without
                                   : colons on the left.
   9 | Other   | Another element   | another element
     :         :                   : with 2 lines, with
     :         :                   : colons on the left.
   5 | Illust. | An illustration   | new line, would this do?
     :         : and I think you   : Is it parseable?
     :         : know what I mean.

The colon at each empty cell looks like vertical ellipsis, that makes it
pretty legible

Adding a 'wrappable' cell definition would go a long way to make it perfect.
