<fieldset style="float:left">
  <table border="1">
    <tr><td>Short</td><td>foo</td></tr>
    <tr><td>Longer</td><td>bar</td></tr>
  </table>
</fieldset>

The table in the above markup is presented with cells that don't align vertically, i.e. cell 'Short' really is shorter than cell 'Longer'. I'm not referring to text alignement within the cells; rather the cells themselves really are different widths (within the same column). As soon as you remove style="float:left" or change the fieldset to a div, the problem goes away.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. paste the above code into a .html file and view
