I just published a Sphinx extension to add colspan and rowspan to .rst tables: https://pypi.org/project/rst-table-span/

Thank you Adam Turner ! (https://github.com/AA-Turner, Python Committer and #PEP Editor. Maintainer of Sphinx and #Docutils)

Pre-dating Markdown and more general-purpose by design, the reStructuredText format is part of #Docutils; greatly expanded on by the #SphinxDoc project.

Both are #FreeSoftware and exemplars of practical, community design projects.

I'm #ThursdayThankful for #reST: a sensible, readable plain-text markup format with thoughtful design to make it unobtrusive and semantically powerful.
