Description Jan krynicky 2023-12-04 19:16:22 UTC 
Description:
... and all attempts to move the nested table where it belongs fail.

The HTML is like this
<table>
<tr>
 <td>header1</td>
 <td>header2</td>
 <td>header3</td>
</tr>
<tr>
 <td><table ... </table></td>
 <td><table ... </table></td>
 <td><table ... </table></td>
</tr>
</table>

but no matter whether I open the HTML file or select the page and paste from Edge I end up with 

|---------------------------------|
|header1   |  header2 |  header3  |
|          |          |  [whole ] |
|          |          |  [nested] |
|          |          |  [table ] |
|          |          |  [ 3 ]    |
|---------------------------------|
|[ whole ] | [ whole ]|           |
|[ nested] | [ nested]|           |
|[ table ] | [ table ]|           |
|[ 1     ] | [  2    ]|           |
|---------------------------------|

and if I try select the nested table and either move or copy it into the right cell of the outer one, it gets dissolved and I end up with
