Previewing MMD tables (including spanning fields)

Rob

It would be very useful to be able to preview MMD tables (including spanning fields) in Editorial, in the way that is supported, for example in iOS ByWord, which provides MultiMarkdown 3 previews.

Sample tables and contrasting previews (Editorial + iOS ByWord) below:
