I think it's difficult to anticipate that. However, there's a problem the W3C
has to deal with in that it has to reconcile its desire to move the align
functionality to CSS with the fact that CSS 2 align functionality has not been
implemented and CSS3 table module has not even reached a working draft stage
yet. So this bug and bug# 11104 are intricately intwined. Right now I think
there is more browser support for HTML table alignment than CSS table
alignment. Ideally WebKit would support either one.

(also, keep in mind that the leaders of HTML5 suggest it may not become a
recommendation for more than 10 years, so we should focus on HTML4.01 and XHTML
1 and 1.1 for now)
