Most of the difficulty with CSS is caused by incomplete IE's implementation (notably lack of display:table-cell). Specyfing even more advanced table-like constructs won't improve IE6's implementation a bit.

And of course there's no reason to tie this layout to particular element names, so this proposal belongs to CSS and is out of scope of HTML.

CSS 3 Advanced Layout Module

A far better solution to the dilemma is The CSS 3 Advanced Layout Module. Do not re-introduce presentational markup!--Itpastorn 13:52, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
