Problem: I needed to create my own table widget with more abilities to customize the drawing of table rows and to have virtual table rows that could be loaded on demand instead of all the table rows up front. Solution: The table viewer uses a table that requests more data to be loaded into it as the data is needed, see the FetchListener. The table viewer talks to a content provider that has additional methods to load data on demand. This table viewer uses its own table widget but does not solve the problem of pluggable table widgets by specifing a table interface to use.

We won't have time for this in the 3.0 timeframe. Will consider for 3.1
Reopening now that 3.0 has shipped
Isn't this a dupe of bug 21284?
No - Bug 21284 is asking for different API than we intend to provide although this might solve the issues in Bug 21284
