Looks interesting for some tables, but I'm not sold yet. Seems to (mostly) only show analysis of a single dimension at a time, though it looks like there is some scrubbing capability?

For multiple dimensions (and I would consider a table with N columns akin to a list of N-dimensional points), GGobi has a number of tools for showing the relation and co-relations. A brief demo of only a few of the features are illustrated here: https://vimeo.com/12292239 Parallel coordinates are not show in that video (it is in others), but is something that looks like it could easily fit in the top part of your table.

I know the names Ramana Rao and Stuart K. Card but hadn't seen that paper before, I'll have to look closer. Diane Cook (creator of xgobi and ggobi) also had a paper in IEEE Vis that same year.
