I agree. I've tweaked Chris's proposal using Caroline's suggestion.

I think this looks much better actually - thank you indeed.

Chris,

When I read the new text for insertRow (Insert Row Showing)
  "An insert row indicates to a consuming application that a table is
present which has no data in it, allowing the application to indicate to the
user how to extend the table."  I expected the "table" to be completely
empty.  And then was confused on reading the text for insertRowShift.

Perhaps
"An insert row indicates to a consuming application that a table has a new
row which has no data in it, allowing the application to indicate to the
user how to enter data and extend the table."
might avoid the confusion.

Another proposed solution. Although there are 12 occurrences of "insert row"
throughout the standard, only these two refer to this particular concept.
