Cell A	Cell B

Insert table does NOT allow any of the attributes of a HTML table. If it were to then you would have two problems:

1) You either slow down BBC parsing a LOT
OR
2) You make it dead easy to get javascript insertion exploits

Why would you need that much control in a post?

EDIT: Time beat me to it
