The "table" object is a LiveCode field with special cell-editing provided with an overlay field; in all other respects it has only the same features any multi-column LiveCode field has, which historically prevented independent column alignment.
The DataGrid is great, but ideally for forms. Beyond the convenient headers, the list mode is really just a very complex way to work around not having independent column alignment in native fields.
With the field object now supporting independent column alignment, we get attractive super-efficient, super-simple displays for columnar data that may include numeric values.
