Re: Using Aria within a table to indicate that a cell is highlighted

Can't wrap a heading around a table cell, it breaks the whole table,
including moving the column and row header accociation to the wrong
cells .. any sematic markup must happen inside the table cell, not to
the cell itself (except descriptive ARIA attribute like aria-current
that do not change the semantics of the table element, ditto
role-description, except it isn't really supported).
