Many pages use tables where only the first column are header cells, e.g.:

    <table>
     <tr><th>Foo <td>Bar
     <tr><th>Foo <td>Bar
     <tr><th>Foo <td>Bar
    </table>

With the current algorithm for assigning header cells to data cells, the first <th> won't be a header cell for any data cells.

Can't 'scope="row"' be used?

In order to be more compatible with existing content, and in order to
not require authors to use more complex markup for such a simple table
like the one above, I think it probably should be.

Yea, perhaps. I'd vote for 'scope', though.
