[accessibility] Designating header cells in tables

[Susan Jolly]

If text editor work-arounds are permiited what about prefixing the contents
of any cells intended as header cells with a prefix such as th:?

My embarrassingly naïve work-around for the moment is to add the following
line to my makefile after lwarp is run:

	# Post-process HTML output to fix table header cells.
	sed -i '/<table>/,/class="hline"/s/<td /<th / ;
/<table>/,/class="hline"/s/<\/td>/<\/th>/' $@

It only works because I happened to use \hline after the header row (an
assumption that holds for the single document of immediate interest, but
obviously not in general).
Of course, I remain keenly interested in Jonathan's TeX solution.

Fortunately, there is no specific deadline, as I can easily work around the
issue for now.

Let me know when you're ready for testing, though, or whether I can help in
other ways.
