I have had a similar table in mind. However, it could be organized 
better. Now if you want to add a feature it will become too wide. I 
suggest this:

Use simple icons for describing support for a feature:
     Full
     Partial
     Planned and under work
     Planned and "promised" but not realized yet
     Not needed because replaced by similar or better feature
     No

Group the table in parts according to feature groups:
Platfrom support
Language
Search
...

Platform support
                      Alk BD BT BPB...
     Linux/Unix
     Mac
     Win 3.1
     Win 95
     Win 98

     RtoL UI
     RtoL in texts
