I was bashing away at the web as you do, and I spotted an interesting feature in Firefox and tables. You are able to select individual (and multiple) cells from a table by pressing the CTRL (or Apple key on OS X) as you hit a table cell, go ahead and try below (if you are watching this in Glorious Firefox-Vision)

Any other features that people have come across...post them here!
