I think J's code handles both  xhtml &  odt exports; remember his
xhtml was originally developed as a possible basis for a new 'generic'
exporter. Given the goal of a general solution, why not just:

#+attr: list-table

with all the exporters aiming to support this feature if it ends up
being welcomed by the community as a whole.

that sounds great, I really look forward to it and am glad to see so
many people working on the task of simplifying the creation and
management of the exporters!
