I can't remember any specific instances but over the last year on this list there have been numerous discussions where people were trying to shoehorn tabular data into definition lists when they clearly should have been using tables. Nick has obviously noticed the same trend. I don't have time to look them up but I'll let you know if I remember any. I'll certainly shout the next time someone does it!
