So the issue is not subtables per se, but rather how they are encoded  
in the ODF XML. Can we perhaps avoid arguing about whether subtables  
are important or not?

Rob, one difficulty with the examples included in this document is they  
are not pretty-printed with indent, so it's difficult to see the
