Currently I think the CSS3 tables definition in this case for 'width' will be very close to CSS 2.1 it will just clarifies things more. I don't see anything at the moment that will make the 'width' definition incompatible.
Text that I propose that we add would be something like this. This still needs some refinement but it's a good start I think.
'width'
The 'width' property gives the minimum width for the column. Further details on 'width' for tables can be found in section 17.5.2.1 for Fixed table layout and 17.5.2.2 for Automatic table layout. Note that Automatic table layout is non-normative for CSS 2.1 and will be further defined in CSS3 Tables.
This text is somewhat redundant but it now clarifies where the information should be coming from all in one place.
