	It's not a bug, as it is not an attribute in HTML 4.0[1]
	strict, which is what Amaya claims to implement.

	There are precedents for Amaya tolerating transitional
	features and even broken HTML, but its a policy decsion
	for the developers as to the extent that they stray 
	outside their brief.

	Amaya should definitely not be capable of inserting
	an align attribute.

	If it fails to honour equivalent alignment information
	specified using styles, you have grounds for complaining.
