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?

It can, but in this case scope of row is so obvious, that it would be  
counter-intuitive if specification said otherwise.
