Considering that Xiphos really doesn't care what the engine feeds it,
the entirety of whether tables work in Xiphos is bound up in whether
OSIS->HTML filtration is sufficiently precise.  Internally, Xiphos
generates tables of its own (commentary by chapter, showing verse#s) and
they work just fine.
Yes, this is entirely accurate. Bibletime uses its own OSIS processing, and hence processes tags like <cell>blah</cell>. All of the other SWORD-based front ends rely on the SWORD engine to do the processing, which currently does nothing and passes on the (non-html) tags as html.

It seems like the render engine in xiphos at least picks up the <table> tag from OSIS, but ignores all other tags (which is what you would expect, it is not being passed anything that means anything as html).

BTW, last I checked xiphos was also fine when you encode a true html table into your osis. It's invalid osis, but it works. Xiphos is also fine with a table in a ThML file (because it's just html).
