I remember seeing this when I first created a table with a multicolumn on one
row. I had a hard time turning that left-edge off. I played with turning the
edges on and off a bunch of times until the dvi/ps output came out right. I
still can't get it to display right on the screen inside lyx -- the left-edge
either draws for the whole length of the table or not at all -- but as long
as it prints right, that's the most important part. It would be nice to be
able to set the left edge to turn off easier for just the row with the
multicolumn.
