The goal is to obtain a table with fixed height rows, and to place the material inside -certain- cells vertically centered.
Looking for a robust and simple way, I have worked on this idea:
documentclassarticle
usepackagetabularx
begindocument
deftextThis is a text example inside a cell
newcommandcell[2]parbox[t][#1][c]4cm#2 % <- '4cm' fixed!
newcolumntypeC>centeringarraybackslashX
begintabularxtextwidthX
hline
text & cell2cmtext \
hline
endtabularx
enddocument
(Similar to this approach using minipage.)
At this point, I would like to use the width of each column into my cell command, in order to replace the fixed "4cm" definition by the generic column width values.
What I am looking for, if possible, is to get the "current" witdh column register used by tabularx, tabular or array, and to use it like an parbox argument. This will also be necessary to use includegraphics [width = x] inside the cells.
For example, you can do it successfully with the paracol package:
documentclassarticle
usepackageparacol
begindocument
deftextThis is a text example inside a cell
columnratio0.8
beginparacol2
parbox[t][2cm][c]csname pcol@columnwidthnumber1endcsnametext
endparacol

If you want a more packaged implementation, I introduce the syntax
begincelltable[<linethickness>]<cell width><cell height><2X cell sep>
|<cell data 1,1> |<cell-data 1,2>
cellrowskip
|<cell data 2,1> |<cell-data 2,2>
endcelltable
Here is the MWE:
