Sorry, it took me while to reply to this, these mails shifted downwards in my inbox, out of sight ;-)

As for the design
questions I know most "table" or "datagrid" components use a DataModel
class. Usually, it takes a [][] array as one of its constructors and
then a series of methods to add or remove cells, rows, etc. Your idea
of merged cells is interesting. I'd suggest a syntax similar to
"merge()" or "join()" with(x, y, direction {up, down, left, right,
center}, distance). For formatting, I would suggest sticking to java's
normal usage of formatters / comparators, since they're well known /
understood by the general audience.

Not much to say here, I think these are excellent suggestions!
