Greg,

It wouldn't be hard to roll-your-own but the technique I would use would
depend on the database schema that was going to be storing the data.
I don't know if you want to have all the cells editable by default, but if
you do, you'd need a lot of observers. You might be able to avoid this by
attaching and detaching observers dynamically - i don't think bubbling works
on blur/focus though?
I would personally do a periodical executor which serialized the table and
saved it if it's changed rather than relying on onBlur events to save
individual cells - this way you don't have too many ajax requests hitting
your server.
You could have the onblur events keeping an internal class up to date which
was then sync'd with the server and use a big cookie to provide instant
saving.
Just some random musings...
