Implementing something just for gnuplot seems to miss the mark.  I can
see utility for "records" in more Babel languages than just gnuplot.
This could be implemented using the already existing facilities by
starting a new record for each row group.

#+name: data
| 1 | 1 |  2 |
| 1 | 2 |  5 |
| 1 | 3 | 10 |
|---+---+----|
| 2 | 1 |  5 |
| 2 | 2 |  8 |
| 2 | 3 | 13 |
|---+---+----|
| 3 | 1 | 10 |
| 3 | 2 | 13 |
| 3 | 3 | 18 |

For gnuplot the record separator happens to be a blank line, for other
languages we'd have different conventions (like adding a third dimension
to the variable that the table is transported in).
