Description

Trying to make complex table WCAG 2.2. compatible but scanner is producing violations : "Complex table does not have headers for each cell properly defined with 'header' or 'scope'" . I've created sample table that reproduces issues.

Steps to reproduce

Run chrome scanner extension on file complex-table-wcag.html
