As a footnote to this discussion: <spanspec> isn't required, at least
not for horizontal spans. You can instead specify horizontal spans
using the nameend="" and namest="" attributes on <entry> elements.
And the OASIS Exchange table model -- which I think will be the
default in DocBook 5.0 -- doesn't allow <spanspec> at all, but
requires you to specify horizontal spans on <entry>'s.
Whether or not existing processing apps deal any better with spans
specified on <entry>'s instead of <spanspec>'s is another question.
