Grazie, ho finito.

Actually, it might not be what you want, and it isn't perfect. What  
it does is it formats each cell to be the length of the longest of  
the whole table. There's some hooks to get it working. However, a few  
setbacks:
	- it only works with text data (no <img>)
	- no nested tables
I'm working on all of these, as well as changing it so that each  
column is the length of its largest  item rather than the whole  
table's largest item.
