The frontpage I use is Part of Office 2003. Many many times when I do the
operation of "split cells" , a dialogue will be shown. you can select "split
into columns" or "split into rows", the default one is "split into columns".
But from my experience( I am a developer of static website),most of the times
we want to use "split into rows" . So time and time again,I should select
"split into rows ". That waste me lots of time.
So my suggestions is make "split into rows" as default instead of "split
into columns". Although it isn't a technical suggestion ,but i think it is
very important for better user experience.

In my opinon, it's bad table etiquette (and methodology) to use either split
or merge of cells.

You will get much more predictable results by either nesting a new table in
the cell you wanted to split, or by terminating the current table and
stacking a new one under the cells you wanted to merge.

This way you avoid littering your table with col- and rowspans, which lead
to very fragile table constructions when used on more than one or two cells.
