Creator: Tables in forms

Creator: Tables in forms

similar to  https://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/question-in-table-form I want to be able to add values into a table for various categories over a period of time so we have something like this:
                  2008    2009   2010  2011
cat a         <field> <field><field><field> 
cat b         <field> <field><field><field> 
cat c         <field> <field><field><field> 

Is this still not possible at all ? or can I have something like

cat a
2008 <field> 2009 <field>  2010 <field> 2011<field>
cat b
2008 <field> 2009 <field>  2010 <field> 2011<field>

etc, etc

If its not possible could I get some indication as to whether its being worked on or not

Thanks
