headers attribute in HTML 5

I'm pleased to see the addition of the headers attribute to the HTML 5
draft. This represents an essential capability for some users of
assistive technology.

 

However, I believe there is an error in the text. At
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/html5/#headers, it says:

 

The th <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/html5/#th>  element may have a headers
content attribute specified.

 

I believe this should be:

 

The td <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/html5/#td>  element may have a headers
content attribute specified.

 

Or:

 

The td <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/html5/#td>  and th
<http://www.w3.org/html/wg/html5/#th>  elements may have a headers
content attribute specified.
