Summary Table headers and footers don't repeat when printed on multiple pages

Created attachment 47543 [details] Test case for table header and footer printing behavious <thead> and <tfoot> elements need to appear on every page of a printed table if they are to be useful. Yes, the spec says they *may* be repeated, but that's hardly useful in practice. Both Firefox and Internet Explorer have supported this for many years. Yes, this has been reported previously, but not with style={display: table-header-group;} explicitly set. Sample attached.

We are also experiencing this problem on Safari and wkhtmltopdf (which uses WebKit). The problem is very easy to duplicate per the attachment in this ticket. Open it in IE or Firefox and you'll the table header repeated on every page when printed. But in Safari, it will not. I have also seen reports of the same problem in Chrome, which I believe uses the Webkit engine. The version of the Safari I'm using the test is 5.0.3.

Can confirm that this is still broken on WebKit2 as shipped in OS X 10.7 / Safari 5.1. =( Any interest in fixing this in a future release?
