Exaclty, problem is with 'consuming' td element by Item object.
The problem is that if you have wide column but short text in it some users
have problem with hitting the text (which is a link) .The idea is to make
whole td element 'clickable'(or linkable).
The solution would be if table could have any component as row or cell
element not only Item object.
But I know that this is a big change in DataTable class (or one of its child
component class) .
