Table with Repeating Rows Field

It would be great to have a Repeating Rows field for Forms and PDF Templates, similar to the repeating rows feature in Microsoft Word's Developer toolbar. A feature like this would enable users to fill tables and add additional rows as required, with preset fields within each table row.
A use case may be documenting actions from an internal meeting, whereby columns may include 'Action' (Text), 'Person Responsible' (Text) and 'Due Date' (Date). The user completing the Form/PDF will be able to add as many rows as required.
Another use case may be for conducting risk assessments, whereby columns may include text, dropdown and date fields.
This could theoretically be implemented through uploading a custom PDF with multiple rows and adding fields to each table cell; however, this may cause issues as table row heights within the PDF cannot dynamically expand.
As adding rows would increase the height of the table field, it would also be great if custom PDF Templates could be converted into an editable document upon upload, allowing for text to be pushed down as fields expand in height.
