*GREAT*.  The absence of table support has been a major limitation in
Scamper.  Obviously because tables are often useful, but also because
a _huge_ number of web pages abuse them to get a particular layout.

I note that quite a few well-established web browsers have trouble
*printing* tables that have been given pixel sizes instead of
percentage sizes.  For example, when I try to print the documentation
for Bobby, a strip of text down the right margin is missing.

So there are at least some cases where ignoring the attributes is the
*best* thing to do.
