Recommendation to deprecate the is-subtable attribute

I received a request from a colleague
on the Accessibility Subcommittee related to nested tables.  The request
is for us to deprecate the use of the is-substable attribute in section
8.2.6.  This attribute does not work well with screen readers and
the enhanced support we have in ODF 1.1 and 1.2 is preferred for nested
tables.

A more detailed analysis of the issue
is here:

I'll also add this to the Wiki.

Regards,

-Rob
