Now I have improved on the example in the HTML 4 specification. I 
deleted all the original @headers, and instead added a headers 
attribute on each TD cell with an axis attribute. (I also deleted 
empty TH cells.) [A] The result in the Table Inspector [B] is the 
same as in the result result [C] from the original table [D], but 
without all those error prone @headers on each data cell of the 
latter.
