I submitted a separate bug report for the row and rowgroup, Bug 11479.

it is not obvious that tbody is a row grouping element.  by its name I assume
this is a container for the whole body of all the tr and td elements
collectively, just as the body element contains the content of the page.

but I am suggesting something where I could, in effect,
<col style="font-weight:bold; background-color:red; color:white;
border-color-left:brown; border-style-left:solid; border-width-left:thin;
border-style-right:none; font-family:Verdana; text-wrap:none;
text-decoration:line-through; vertical-align:top; text-align:right;">

CSS like this.  generic stuff that people use everyday in formatting text. 
this is what needs to be applied to col, colgroup.

unfortunately, this will never be heard by the CSS folk because they don't
listen, so I give up.  I am closing this bug.
