    <thetext>Section: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#the-tfoot-element

Comment:
It&apos;s not clear that the (implied) HTML 4.01 use of tfoot is prohibited (which
seems to demand content identical to thead). Or should duplicate thead content
be allowed in tfoot? Section should also have a tfoot example with meaningful
content (a failing of the HTML 4.01 spec) since this is a little-understood
element and &quot;column summaries&quot; is vague (does that mean a &quot;totals&quot;?; are there
any other uses for this element?)
