Is 'special first _column_' really an org concept? Recalc seems to only
look at each row individually. This table:
| * | 7 | 11 | |
| 1 | 8 | 11 | |
| * | 9 | 11 | |
#+TBLFM: $4=$2*$3
Then 'C-u C-c *' gives:
| * | 7 | 11 | 77 |
| 1 | 8 | 11 | |
| * | 9 | 11 | 99 |
#+TBLFM: $4=$2*$3
The '1' in @2 did not interfere at all with special recalc of @1 & 3.

I hope not as the current behavior is very convenient and with little
risk of unintended or unwanted behavior.
