I thought if you send to the list more <div>s, as with menu.tpl, etc., I
could add the needed {t} tags, indentation, etc., so you could have all
the table markup removed in your development environment.  Therefore, you
will be able to work on the needed CSS to get the same or better look&feel
that the one currently at production. What do you think?.

Just a comment about text browsers:
  * 'w3m' _is_ able to renders table layouts, but I think not <div>s one.
  * 'lynx' is _not_ even render table layouts.

I think the <div>s layout is the way to go. I have read the links
you has posted, and <div>s seem to be good too for mobile devices.

Awright, hauling out the nuclear helium cooled markup blaster as we speak :)

Fair warning tho: Styling a <div> layout to look like a table layout is harder than doing the same for table markup, but it's much more flexible wrt both style and not-so-powerful browsers. And it's very much doable, don't worry.
