yes, I know, plan @d needs lot of new code - and described feature is from
"nice to have" kind.

The prerequisite is enhancing drawing system in psql to support
multiattribute (records) cells - what can be nice feature generally.

Some like:

id | C1 | C2 |
+---+----+---+---+---+---+
|A1 | A2 |A3 |A4 |A5 |A6 |
====+===+====+===+===+===+===+
| | | | | | |

Without this possibility plan @d is impossible.
