That's not a great idea, since the current spec at
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-background/#border-radius-tables says:

  The effect of border-radius on internal table elements is undefined in
CSS3
  Backgrounds and Borders, but may be defined in a future specification.

and last I checked interoperability for border-radius on cells was poor.

I agree that the general interaction of border-radius with tables is ...
complicated.  That's why it's not fully specced.  :(
