Sigh.  Wish I'd known this a while ago.  I am one of those who is pretty squarely in the no-frames, not-ever camp.  But I do use tables a whole big bunch.  May need to re-think.  Or at least divide my pages into sets of non-nested tables.  Which have their own issues.  Sigh.

Anyway, just wanted to say, thanks for this, Kayjey.  It's hints like these (with solid proof, yet!) that make this list worthwhile.
