I have skimmed through this topic and have a couple things to add.

1) XHTML is not really necessary. Take a look at http://ug.dyndns.org/~jsumners/comments.php?article=167 for an explanation why.

2) Nested tables are indeed nasty and "bad" but a table can be used for framing. I agree that using tables for layout is not the best idea but some designs are not conducive to any other method while retaining majority compatibility.

It would be quite easy to redo the front forum page with cleaner markup styled by CSS and I will put that on my list of things to do during winter break. It would most certainly reduce bandwidth on heavily trafficed forums. CSS is only downloaded as needed and once downloaded does not redownload until it has changed (unlike table laden markup).
