+Rowspanning tables
+------------------
+
+Several rowspanning cells in a table. 
+
+.. Problem:
+
+   In LaTeX, if there are multirow cells, the "overwritten" cells need to be
+   defined as empty cells.
+
+   However, visit_entry() is only called for the remaining cells, as HTML
+   expects only remaining cells. So the LaTeX writer needs bookkeeping
+   to write out the required number of extra '&'s.
