Duh, the previous draft had TD BGCOLOR snuck in there.  Kinda surprising,
given the way the rest of HTML 4.0 treats presentation attributes.  Sure
enough, it got tossed from the November 7th draft :

<!ATTLIST (TH|TD)               -- header or data cell --
  %attrs;                          -- %coreattrs, %i18n, %events --
  abbr        %Text;     #IMPLIED  -- abbreviation for header cell --
  axis        CDATA      #IMPLIED  -- names groups of related headers--
  headers     IDREFS     #IMPLIED  -- list of id's for header cells --
  scope       %Scope;    #IMPLIED  -- scope covered by header cells --
  rowspan     NUMBER     1         -- number of rows spanned by cell --
  colspan     NUMBER     1         -- number of cols spanned by cell --
  %cellhalign;                     -- horizontal alignment in cells --
  %cellvalign;                     -- vertical alignment in cells --
