That was a decision made by the early developers of PseudoPod, and I
kept it in my implementation for backward compatibility in parsing old
O'Reilly manuscripts. It's entirely optional, though, and entirely
separate from table parsing.

It's kind of fundamental to the nature of subclassing that you can
override any behavior you want. :)
