Why should column attributes be inherited over row attributes? I don't think it makes sense to set a fixed preference for either. An ideal style sheet proposal would let the author of the document determine which takes precedence on a table-by-table basis, rather than fixing it arbitrarily. It wouldn't be much harder to do this than to support either fixed-precedence option, so this should certainly be a feature of more advanced versions of CSS.
