The position of the nested table will not be optimal, but it seems that generally speaking contents of multicolumn cells are rendered aligned left in general anyhow.
Purpose
Fix #13597
The produced LaTeX mark-up was completely mangled. With this patch, LaTeX mark-up compiles to PDF.
TODO: customize placement of contents (here a table) if in a multi-column cell. It seems alignment is always left (
ltype column) and can't be customized.I have tested this on my stock of table tests for PDF rendering and no changes appear to be induced. So I will merge after testing completes.
sorry for multiple forcepush, but I am on a new system and I had not yet installed the testing infrastructure at my locale and mypy has tortured me
