A suggestion for improvement.
What problem does this address?
The current implementation of adding rows and columns to the Table block is not intuitive.
As-is, a user is required to leave the currently selected cell, enter the block toolbar, then select one of the available controls. None of those controls provide enough context on where the row, or column, will be inserted/deleted even.
I want to break this down into two main focuses (this issue is focused on the first):
What is your proposed solution?
Add an "Add column" inserter that renders when hovering (maybe focus) on a cell within the last column. New columns are always added at the end.
Add an "Add row" inserter that renders when hovering (maybe focus) on a cell within the last row. New rows are always added to the bottom.
