Hi w3 team,

In the spec colspan is suggest to be a positive integer (1+), and row span is
suggested as non-negative integer (0+), however the nightly spec reports that
these values are unsigned integers and should return a default value of one. So
I believe both colspan and rowspan are really positive integers and as such the
spec should no seek to confuse people (the wiki appears to have this correct).

Also, I don't see why the rowspan and colspan attribute can't support the value
"*", this would simplify the creation of tables with alternative layouts or
multiple tbody elements.

The attribute should attempt to span an any remaining cells or rows
