One example:
<ADDRESS>
Text with proper "address" style.
<table><tr><td>Text without "address" style.</td></tr></table>
Text without proper "address" style.
</ADDRESS>
Note that this is true even if the table, tr and td tags have to styles assigned
(other than defaults of course).

This is as designed, in quirks mode.
Insert an HTML 4 strict DOCTYPE at the top of your page and it should work
fine. See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html4 for information on which DOCTYPE to
use for HTML 4 strict.
Marking INVALID.

Please refer to documentation on this "quirk" mode that is "broken" on purpose.

IMHO, quirks mode should not be the default at all if Mozilla is to be accepted
as a standards compliant browser.
A DTD to specify quirks mode, or a tag for quirks mode (why not, its the _wrong
way_ to render, so why not add a proprietary extension for the sake of having
people get those results?) seems a lot more appropriate than trying to _force_
the correct way of rendering a page.
PS, I selected the proper DTD for my page and it still renders improperly.
Please open another bug on the other issues in the page.

Verifying. I do agree that "Quirks" mode should be default here though.
