  can we have simple tables interface?
  preferably with the ability to keep the borders invisable.

  strongly concur. Wouldn’t it nice to have a “Insert Table ” button on the post/page visual editor , just like many desktop blog editors have?.
  it would be easier then having to type in HTML tags for a table.
  Good suggestion.

  If you have a PC – Windows Live Writer will do tables. I use tables on my site for How To Do It articles – once I got the first table set up I copy and paste in the html editor mode – sort of a rough workaround but works for me.

  @auxclass but you can’t get rid of the border, even using html code.

  @ eyalniv are you aware the some of the code syntax for table borders has changed in the move to HTML 5?

  If you use windows live writer as your offline blog editor there is a built in HTML table feature.
