Re: keymap in yank-excluded-properties

    automatically copy that property to the kill-ring, so there is nothing
    we need to add to basic functionality to achieve this.

Tak,

Have you made any progress on this?

I didn't want to make any changes to emacs basics to support the
yank-function property until I had heard from you whether it was
possible to handle table(-fragment) yanking as suggested.
