[Moin-user] table parsing not printable

MoinMoin/parser/wiki.py (and also look at MoinMoin/formatter/text_html.py)

I think we just wanted the p CSS to apply there, too.

If you touch <p> / </p> generation, be warned that this is one of the 
rather ugly parts of moin. But maybe it is easy to change it for tables, 
I don't know without looking at the code.

We are planning a new parser with DOM making all that stuff easier, but 
it isn't ready yet (not even beta).
