There's been talk about adding rowspan/colspan. It's very likely that'll show up in either Tables level 3 or 4. What part of the flex behavior isn't present in the Tables module? > width=100% in tables is very far from width:100% in CSS. Afaik, width=100% on a <table> is just sizing the border-box. In other words, <table>s just have an automatic box-sizing:border-box applied by the UA. > (and <table>s have explicit flex units already like > <td width="1*">, btw) So vast majority of cases where we use > flow:"template" now are simply not reproducible by display:table > and even by <table>s. Can you explain this flex behavior further? ~TJ
