Re: [PATCH] Bug: Unintended column added to table [9.4.6 (9.4.6-gab9f2a @ /home/user/.emacs.d/elpa/org-9.4.6/)]

[Jude DaShiell]

I've had this happen in an earlier version of org and found if I get on
the last record in a table at the beginning of the line and tab the number
of columns in the table plus 1 I get a blank new record added to the table
and the extra unintended column does not appear.  In the earlier version
of orgmode I use if I go down to the last record then tab once to get into
the first column of the table and then start entering data and finish the
data entry in that record or add more records, then the extra unintended
column does appear.  I only mention this behavior as confirmation of this
behavior.
