Pierre and I agree that we do need to get this fixed; if we don't, COL and
COLGROUP are fairly useless. However, if push comes to shove, I'll be
comfortable release noting this for beta 1 because (1) the W3C CSS1 test suite
doesn't test this, and (2) no existing browser supports this, so there isn't
existing content using it that will break. I think this is a "like to have" for
beta 1 (but I wouldn't stop ship for it) and a "must have" for FC beta and FCS.
