Joe, you can put meaningful heading on simple table layouts, left
navigation and right content. That does not make it a real table
as is commonly meant in alt.html. So as a definition, it would
need to be sharpened up.
Jonathan, it depends what is meant by relationship and data. Data
in a 2 col table with only one row, used for layout, would
satisfy this unless the definition was longer and more complex.
