Hi all,

Another question regarding backgrounds. See the attached FO file and the
resulting PDF. Cell 1.1 is spanning over 2 rows. Its border-right is
composed of 2 segments, one thicker and one thinner. For the latter, the
gap is currently filled with the table's background.

Question is: shouldn't that rather be the cell's background? Do we
consider that this gap should correspond to additional padding for the
cell, or to some transparent space showing the row's or the table's
background?

The first answer seems the most logical to me, but that means that if
the background is an image, it may be cropped by the other borders. Is
everyone ok with that?

Thanks,
Vincent
