How can you have spanning which *is* presentational? if a label or data
spans
two columns, that's not just a jolly effect to make it look nice, its
because
the label or data applies to both columns.
I fear that I may differ from David fairly fundamentally in this
rigid distinction between presentation and structure (and believe me,
it hurts deep inside to even _consider_ disagreeing with David). Quite
often presentation is used to imply some structure, no?
then again its late.
