After looking at the implemention on test.wp.org , I am not pleased with how technical the code is, I strongly feel that its just a toy-idea.
I told gwicke on irc that I believe that sortable tables should come before timelines. Here is why:
First, 1.3 introduces a parser (Tim, (i assume), its a standard LALR algorithm that takes in a BNF grammar? (dont know where in the code it is exactly, both of these answers would help).
Assuming its a normal parser, then wiki tables will have to run through it no?
With this, just a little work is needed to make the tables into some type of data object that can be manipulated.
A simple application of this object would be making tables sortable on columns.
There are javascripts that do this, see http://plone.org/plone_javascripts.js, scroll down to 'table sorter script'. You can experiment with it in your user javascript on test.
