So far (excepting the position() error)
I've got this as output.
Two objectives: 
1. To present as line length limited text (Thanks to 4xt / Eric V
and his great bit of code) for lists such as this, which accept only
content, not attachments,
2. To make sense when using a screen reader (text to speech).
I pick up the 'Headings' 'Problems' from column headings and repeat them.
I've tried it on a couple of people and it works, though not with row/col
spanning ;-) That would become a little hairy.
I tried [column 4] but thats somewhat illogical, since the DTD I'm using
insists on column heading content.

Table: 
  [row 2:] 
    [ Area:]Headings. 
    [ Problems:]Some of the Sections in the Upcast output had no 
    header, for various reasons. This leaves the output looking a 
    little odd. . 

  [row 3:] 
    [ Area:]Font size. 
    [ Problems:]Due to the choice of output from Upcast, I had font 
    information in the document. This is ignored, dealing with it in 
    the next phase.. 

  [row 4:] 
    [ Area:]Formatting. 
    [ Problems:]Some sections of the document detailed large print 
    layout, which to be displayed properly, required tabular layout for 
    HTML. This had to be fixed at source, replacing text layout in the 
    source document with a tabular layout.. 

  [row 5:] 
    [ Area:]Images. 
    [ Problems:]The images in the source document export as Windows 
    Meta Files. Upcast transforms these to jpeg format.. 

  [row 6:] 
    [ Area:]Special Characters. 
    [ Problems:]Word uses many forms of special character. Upcast 
    represents these as Unicode values. I selectively treated these 
    using the msub program.. 
. end of table.
