Replace all tables with divs (Can I get an "Amen"?)
Tables are just the worst. If we really want to make WooCommerce the best e-commerce platform for Wordpress, I would think the use of tables in any and every instance needs to go. AmIright?
We all know the incredible features of these outdated "structure" tags, so I won't go into those, but it would be a million times easier to manipulate nearly every aspect of the WooCommerce style and layout if it were built using divs rather than tables.

Ideally, speaking just for myself I suppose, even the account and cart tables, if they were divs, could be styled easy enough to appear organized like tables, but would allow more flexibility with individual classes/ids, etc.
I ran into another table, which would be especially great as divs, on the variation section of the single product page (output source screenshot: http://pasteboard.co/2ffRF3Z2.png).
Nothing major. Just some last few UI tables that might not need to be there.
Thanks for the reply!

Where do you see any tables? With the latest release there should be very few tables if any left. They should only be used for tabular data (like stuff on the my account page where it lists your orders and amount you paid for each). Tables are still very good for that as that's exactly what they're designed for.
