As per section 14.2 of the CSS 2.1 spec
<http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/colors.html#background>, "Background properties are
not inherited...". Moreover, by (5) of section 17.5.1
<http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/tables.html#table-layers>, "...the background covers
exactly the full area of all cells that originate in the row...".

As of this writing, Firefox (3.5.5) correctly handles backgrounds on <tr>s. But
Safari (WebKit r51473), and IE 8 do not.
