    Thank you!

    BTW, we greatly appreciate that repeating headers have now been implemented
    as we are just getting into a project phase that is heavy on tables.

    As an adjunct issue, I noticed that currently table layout is fixed (listed
    in the non-compliance section of your documentation). After some
    experimentation it would appear that this means that table width is equally
    distributed between all columns that do not have explicit widths. Is this
    correct?

    Do you have any idea when you might implement table-layout="auto"? From the
    spec this seems to imply implementing some sort of table layout optimization
    algorithm, but no specific one is mandated.

    This is indeed a bug in the headers implementation that wasn't covered by
    our tests. We spotted the place where it happens; the fix is easy, so I
    expect the updated version (XEP 3.7.1) will be available within 48 hours.

    Thank you very much for finding this out. Your feedback is very valuable for
    us.

    Thanks.

    I am seeing an issue with the new repeating table headers. It appears that
    when an initial table header would push the first body row to the next page,
    instead of starting on the next page XEP writes out the first body row with
    NO headers.

    I tried setting keep-with-next.within-page="always" on the table-header, but
    that doesn't fix it. I haven't checked if that's even a valid place to put
    it.

    Any ideas?
