The cursor behaves very interestingly in the table :)
I typed a word into the 1st column's cell, double-clicked it (the word got selected) and started typing. The first typed character replaced the text and then the cursor jumped before the character, so all the other characters appeared before the 1st character.

Another interesting behavior in the table: I copy-pasted a text from one cell to others and although the source text was with font size 11, the pasted text appeared with font size 12.

I can't reproduce this one either, but i belive it's because i have qt 4.7 and i bet you have 4.8

Well I think I've found the offending commit to qt 4.8, but the developer in question is on vacation until monday, but then I'll discuss it with him.

I think a relatively simple patch will come out of it, and then I'll tell you.

For the record the problem can be seen in kate too, when you have lines that are indented and wrapped. Then on the second and following lines of that wrapped line it happens too

A patch has been committed to Qt, and I've notified packagers that they should patch their packages

So closing this bug

In precise with Qt 4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4 packages installed I ran calligrawords, inserted a 4x4 table and when writing in the second cell the mouse cursor was in the first cell

I installed Qt 4:4.8.1-0ubuntu4.2 packages from precise-propoesed. Running calligrawords and inserting a table I can correctly edit second column cells with the cursor in the right cell

Dear John,

Calligrawords is a package name. The bug was correct before you fixed it. Please don't fix it again.
