Although others have made suggestions that may be better (I don't know), would using the built-in tbl support in sc (the text-based Spreadsheet Calculator) be useful for your purposes? Disclaimer: I began maintaining sc about six years ago, since it seemed to have been orphaned at the time, and I needed some features that were not present. Although I haven't released a version in a little over three years, I guess I'm still the official maintainer, and I really ought to release another version. I've been lurking here for awhile, but haven't really started using groff yet, but when I do, I'll probably want to improve the tbl support in sc, so if anyone uses it, please feel free to make suggestions.
