Related, but different. There, the non-TD TR content is said to be
deleted instead of being moved to before the table, and then either
way you end up with an empty TR which is then deleted.
The bug I'm reporting is a more fundamental problem with removing
empty TRs due to their effect on preceding rowspanning cells and not
the problem of non-TD content within them. What I am saying is that
empty TRs shouldn't be deleted; they should instead have an empty TD
inserted within them. The paragraph in that example should still be
moved to before the table.

I'll be able to test that under FreeBSD later today, unless someone
else beats me to it. I'll also test the above cited bug under my
patch.
