I'm not convinced this is needed. The JuMP docs, https://github.com/jump-dev/JuMP.jl/pull/3094, https://jump.dev/JuMP.jl/previews/PR3094/JuMP.pdf, have a bunch of large tables that are pretty readable as-is:

Does anyone have examples of where this would be beneficial?

[mortenpi]

Personally, I find it would be beneficial in both of those examples. Although a little bit of experimentation might be necessary to make sure it's not intrusive at the same time.

good typography can always organize a table, no stripes needed

(Edward Tufte, at https://www.edwardtufte.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=0001IV)

But a little bit of extra row spacing (in the first figure here) would be nice...

There is a suggestion in the Tufte thread to use a separator line, but only every some N lines, which would perhaps be less intrusive than colored background, but still achieve the same goal, especially if it is not styled too strongly.
