Just to clarify my comment.  I find it easier to use pure HTML + CSS then 
GWT's built in CellTable etc.

Eg:
<table ui:field="myTable"></table>
@UiField TableElement myTable;
TableRowElement row = myTable.insertRow(...);
...

Then you can use all the fancy CSS styles, that others have written to make 
tables look pretty.  No need to mangle them into what GWT wants.

Adding GWT widgets into the table is a little annoying that you need to 
call onAttach to get their events to work, but that's a minor inconvience.

Anyhow, I wasn't suggesting writing any JavaScript.  :)

Also not saying don't use CellTable.  Maybe you have a massive amount of 
data, and all the fancy databinding will save you time in the long run.
