incorrect tab key handling when enumeration is embedded into the table

Consider -- type "hello" and press tab hello | tab character is inserted. ok. Enumerate this line, press enter 1. hello 2. | press tab 1. hello 1. | ok, enumeration environment has higher priority. Now, put this all in the table and this time press tab. No, caret will not jump into the next cell. The enumeration will be more nested. This is wrong, because in the second example you had paragraphs within enumeration, now you have paragraphs within enumeration within table cells, so table environment should have precedence.
Tab key in table changes level of list, Ctrl-tab inserts a tab - this is defined behavior. Maybe Ctrl-Shift-tab could be added in this case to jump to next cell. Reassigned to requirements.
Well, then design is odd, because it means the embedded structure has precedence over the "parent" structure.
