David, I think there is a confusion between which group mode setting makes this work. In VO utility, under WEB/Navigation tab, there is a set of radio buttons for choosing whether to navigate by DOM or Group mode. Next to those buttons is a checkbox for "group items within when navigating web tables. This is the setting that will collapse web tables to a single group item. it operates independently from the dom/group navigation setting. So, you can have VO set to navigate by either DOM or Group mode and tables will still be fully expanded if the checkbox for "grouping items within" is not checked. Conversely, if it is checked, the Dom/group setting is irrelevant and tables will be collapsed regardless.
It works fine and I can navigate the sites with the large tables and All I encounter is a single item saying "table". I can now either interact or bypass that table item.
