I agree with you. In fact, I think it would be nice to complete the ability to create custom forms, by giving the possibility to edit its css styles in a separate file. This way, we could have a more complete control on the look-and-feel of the forms. Adding cellspadding style in the td tags (<td style="cellpadding:0px" ...>) didn't work for me, and I did not look more forward to solve this problem, guessing that the problem came from the management of the style sheets. Do you think developers can have a look at it more closely? It could be nice to give this ability in order to complete the creation of customized forms.
