Currently we handle wide tables on mobile by making them horizontally
scrollable. This lets you pan around in a big table to see the whole thing,
BUT you can't see it all at once.

This is also a little annoying for things like info boxes that are only
*slightly* wider than the screen, and can make it hard to actually navigate
a complex table since you can't see the header cells and all the data cells
together.

I was wondering if there was any interest in the idea of scaling tables to
fit the display width instead -- then allow pinch-zoom and panning within
the entire article if it's a really big table and you can't read at the
initial zoom level.

This should be accomplishable using CSS transforms in modern browsers &
apps... thoughts?
