Here's an example. Within the article on the word "ouvrage" in the
french wiktionary in the section on ouvrage as a verb, is this
template:
{{fr-verbe-flexion|ind.p.1s=oui|ind.p.3s=oui|sub.p.1s=oui|sub.p.3s=oui|
imp.p.2s=oui|'=oui}
This templates expands to a table that uses rowspan to control the
table structure. I can regenerate the input and the incorrect output
when I am next back at my office.
I have now made a temporary fix which involves first walking the tree
before cleaning and marking each table row with an indication of all
the rowspans that cover it, and then decrementing the rowspan values
as the tree is cleaned. It is not very clean or efficient code, but
it fixes the easy cases.
