"align" and "valign" attributes -- and their CSS equivalents -- are ignored at the <col> or <colgroup> level in tables. attributes must then be set at the individual <tr> or <td> level

Below is a test table to demonstrate the problem... Col 1 should display with
alignment Top-Right, as per HTML Spec. In any Mozilla browser that I've tested,
the column ignores the <col> attributes and does not align correctly.
Note that the same problem occurs using the CSS Style method for <col> or
<colgroup> elements (i.e. the style is ignored). Internet Explorer correctly
renders the pages, as per HTML spec.
<table border="1">
<colgroup colspan="3" width="200">
<col align="right" valign="top">
<col>
<col>
</colgroup>
<tr>
<th>Test Header Col 1</th>
<th>Test Header Col 2<br>Test</th>
<th>Test Header Col 3</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Test Data Col 1</td>
<td>Test Data Col 2</td>
<td>Test Data Col 3<br>test</td>
</tr>
</table>
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set up a test HTML file, including the sample table included in "Details"
2. Open the HTML file in Mozilla.
3. Gaze in wonder at the incorrectly aligned table-column
Actual Results:
Table-column not aligned as expected.
Expected Results:
Correctly rendered the table-column alignment.
