Hi @laurent,
I was talking about this table issue. The vertical bar has a new function since v179: it is the minimalist preparation of a new, headerless table, no horizontal bar required. Its old function, inserting an empty row, has been dropped. Fortunately, empty rows can still be created by two consecutive vertical bars. So the whole thing can actually be regarded as an improvement, that’s why I guess this change was made deliberately.
We haven’t seen any complaints from other users about this behavior, have we? So it would be fine with me to leave it as is now. The incident hasn’t ruined my trust in Joplin, but made me aware again of “memento perdere” (the mild companion of “memento mori”).
