I fully agree with Kerstin. It's just like the discussion about allowing layout tables. Since there are no accessibility problems with layout tables (provided they are marked up correctly) it's not our job to ban them. Do I think layout tables are the way to go? No! Do I think it's the WCAG WG task to ban them? No! We've got quite enough work as it is if we limit ourselves to accessibility problems. Let's not put best practices of webdesign on our plate as well.
