There is actually no possibility to accomplish this task without saving the
table data separately. You've already sketched one out of several ways to do
this.

Remember StdTables implements tables as controls. They serve as very simple
and convenient data entry and representation objects which can be linked
directly to program variables. Unlike general views, controls do not manage
persistent state of their linked data.
