Only now I see that this second part with the actual problem of your
original post is still unanswered. Does this help?:
| key (ordered) | val | | val (ordered) | key |
|---------------+-----+---+---------------+-----|
| 8 | foo | | bar | 42 |
| 42 | bar | | foo | 8 |
#+TBLFM: $5 = '(nth (position $4 '(@<<$2..@>$2) :test 'equal) '(@<<$1..@>$1))
