2. WORKSFORME BUG:

2.1 Bug 12325: "Conformance requirements for <table role=presentation>
(layout tables)" reported by Leif Halvard Silli.
Leif marked bug  WORKSFORME and closed it saying, "I accept Richard's
arguments.  Plus: Not everything that is possible/legal to do would be
smart to do. But this should be dealth with at author's digression and
best practises etc. In addition, we should look at any table as, in
principle, a data table. Only tables with role="presentation" should
be seen as being officially "blessed" (by the HTML specific) to be
layout tables."
