(Although I'm not sure why you would use a form in a data table either!) I don't mean to dismiss the scenario though, is there a public facing example you could share, just to get an idea of why people would do that?

One example of form in a table is seen in tax forms where there is data in most of the cells but you need to fill in some fields in the table. I imagine one day people might use CSS only tables and then this might be relevant. Another case is where people use table structure but perhaps use CSS to change the way the traditional table looks to make it appear in some other representation like an infographic. No public links -- just trying to consider what scenarios are out there.
