[texhax] "padding" in tabular

[Chris Bourke]

I've looked at several tutorials on everything you'd ever need to know
about the tabular environment, but none of them had an answer to this
question.  Of course we can add *horizontal* spacing in tabular cells by
setting the \tabcolsep value, but is there an equivalent length for
\tabrowsep?  That is, I want to add a little padding to the top/bottom of
each tabular cell.  Consider putting $\overline{(B \cap C)} in a cell--it
becomes very difficult to see the overbar when there is an hline above it.
I'd like to add a little padding to the top so that it becomes more clear.
