Org-mode and visual-line-mode except in tables

Question

Is there a way to turn off visual-line-mode within Emacs Org-mode tables?

I very much like how visual-line-mode works in Org-mode, except when it wraps wide tables, making them unreadable.

Maybe seven years ago, Carsten Dominik (Org-mode founder) asked the Emacs maintainers for line-by-line control of visual-line-mode, and he indicated that he got a positive response. Did that get implemented, and has anyone put it to use for Org-mode tables?

Answer 1

There is the phscroll which uses overlays around org-table to make this work.
