Cool, you're welcome. It is not the most convenient solution, but
keeping your tables in Editorial Markdown syntax should work:
#+BEGIN_EXPORT md
Cat | Fur |
--- | --- |
A | A lot |
B | None |
#+END_EXPORT
Except that the above is not recognized as a table, so all the nifty tools
for table editing are lost.
IMO, a better solution is to create a filter for table-row that replaces
the leading vertical with a space (or nothing) and bind that function to
`org-export-filter-table-row-functions'. See
(info "(org) Advanced configuration")

However, those intimidated by filters can keep tables in org src blocks
and convert them on export using a :post argument to clean the leading
verticals. That way the tables can be edited as usual via
org-edit-src-code:
#+name: strip-leading-vertical
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(replace-regexp-in-string "^|" " " *this*)
#+END_SRC
#+header: :results replace :exports results
#+header: :post strip-leading-vertical() :wrap export md
#+BEGIN_SRC org
| a | b |
|---+---|
| 1 | 2 |
| 3 | 4 |
#+END_SRC
#+RESULTS:
#+BEGIN_export md
a | b |
---+---|
1 | 2 |
3 | 4 |
#+END_export
A call to `(require 'ob-org)' or suitable customization is needed to
enable the org src block to execute.
