Ok, I see. so, does it mean that you can only customize a Cell one
level down? I.e., if I start producing my own HTML instead of having
GWT do it, I would lose the functionality I would otherwise have out
of the box...

Let me make it a bit clearer with regard to what I am asking...

I would hope that I can have some construct like this:

CustomCell {

  @Override
  public xxx render(xxxx) {
     // Render a label
     // Render a SelectionCell
  }
}

so, in the pseudo code above, my custom cell would get the
functionality of a GWT Label and of a GWT SelectionCell with all of
its events, etc.

If I were to start rendering using straight HTML, then I would lose
the events that come out of the box for the SelectionCell.

So, is something like that possible?

That's what CompositeCell is about (I haven't tried it though).

 

In fact, I am currently trying to figure out if it's possible to have
CellTable have one of its columns be another CellTable. Are you saying
that this is not possible?

Another CellTable? not possible (Cell cannot be a Widget).

Rendered as a table with each cell having a specific behavior (similar to CellTable, but as a Cell), possible, but not straightforward at all!
