I agree with this. I would think that a table with TH elements would be easily machine testable for a null summary. If a null summary exists then TH elements can not exist. Very easily a machine testable situation with verifiable results.

Layout tables must not have TH elements. Summary Data tables must have a summary (can't be NULL). Layout tables must have a summary. It may be NULL or text to describe the table. Caption Data tables may have captions. Layout tables may not have captions. If we agree on these points then a consensus on the details (e.g. text that the summary should contain) should easily follow. Chris
