Even IE 7 doesn't support border-spacing.

Indeed. In the special case where you want to set spacing between borders to 
zero, border-collapse: collapse works fine in all browsers we need to care 
about. In that case, border-spacing has no effect.

For cellspacing, you just said it.

Cellpadding is a completely different issue, and it can be handled simply by 
setting padding for the cells. To set it to zero, you would just set
th, td { padding: 0; }
