"," is the default CSV delimiter (for spreadsheet software and for
python csv library), and the only one supported today, as it's easier
to edit by hand tables with tab delimiter, an option to set delimiter
for each table will be fine too!

as in France we use the comma for writing the decimales, it could help to be 
able to use ; for the CSV delimiter. The delimiter could be chosen like this 
for example:

txt2tags --with-csv-delimiter=";" file.t2t 

or for tab:
txt2tags --with-csv-delimiter="\t" file.t2t

Once again, I think this is table specific.

Something like :
%!csv(html): foo.csv
for the default "," delimiter and
%!csv(html): foo.csv ";"
%!csv(html): foo.csv "\t"
for a specific one could it be possible ?

We can choose the delimiter for a CSV file since r524.

The separator is now (r1045) specified with the command line-like option 
--separator (or -s), example:

    %!csv: -s tab foo.csv
