I made a design choice.
There is a parameter in class Table mAutoFillEmptyCells.
It was true by default, I changed it to false, increasing
performance. I documented this in the tutorial:
http://www.lowagie.com/iText/tutorial/ch05.html#nested 

As you can see we have to set a parameter 'AutoFillEmptyCells'
to true. This automagically fills the empty cells with a cell that
follows the default cell layout. If we forget to do this (as in
the second table in the example), there will be no extra cells added
and rows that don't contain any cells will be omitted. In the example,
the first row is not shown, because it is empty. 

Remark: this will only fill cells that weren't added to the
table. Maybe I should add something to the autoFillEmptyCells
method to replace empty cells without layout with an empty
cell with layout. 

kind regards,
Bruno
