Yes, I understand that too.  I will point out that I have *never* used
a data directive in any of my applications.  I'm not sure why you feel
that you need them.
Because I want to write XHTML code as much as possible.
This is possible with Djando and it is "fast", why it should not be 
possible with Nevow?

The fact that they are going away at some point is
a very good thing, in my opinion.
If data directive are going away and I will no more be able to write:

    <table>
       <caption>RandomTable</caption>
       <thead>
         <tr n:render="sequence" n:data="header">
           <th n:pattern="item" n:render="string" />
         </tr>
       </thead>
       <tbody n:render="sequence" n:data="table">
         <tr n:pattern="item" n:render="sequence">
           <td n:pattern="item" n:render="string" />
         </tr>
       </tbody>
     </table>

I will migrate to twisted web2 + django template, where I can write:

     <table>
       <caption>RandomTable</caption>
       <thead>
         <tr>
           {% for i in header %}
             <th>{{ i }}</li>
           {% endfor %}
         </tr>
       </thead>
       <tbody>
         {% for i in table %}
           <tr>
             {% for j in i %}
               <td>{{ j }}</td>
             {% endfor %}
           </tr>
         {% endfor %}
       </tbody>
     </table>

However I want to be sure.
Maybe I'm using Nevow in the wrong way.

How do you render a table like the one in the example?
