Iron coffee pots and tin coffee pots, they're no good to me! If I can't have a proper cup of coffee from a proper copper coffee pot,I'll Throw you in the sea

Simple table with mixed colwidths and a colspan
col1,1 col1,2 col1,3
col2,1 col2,2 col2,3
col3,1 col3,2-3; I'm using a spanname attribute to refer to a spanspec in my containing tgroup. The spanspec in turn refers to the starting and ending colspecs, which I need to compute my width correctly.
col4,1-2; I'm using a spanname attribute to refer to a spanspec in my containing tgroup. The spanspec in turn refers to the starting and ending colspecs, which I need to compute my width correctly. col4,3
col5,1 col5,2-3; I'm using namest and nameend attributes to refer directly to the starting and ending colspecs for this span, which I need to compute my width correctly.
col6,1-2; I'm using namest and nameend attributes to refer directly to the starting and ending colspecs for this span, which I need to compute my width correctly. col6,3
col7,1-3; I'm using namest and nameend attributes to refer directly to the starting and ending colspecs for this span, which I need to compute my width correctly.
col8,1-3; I'm using a spanname attribute to refer to a spanspec in my containing tgroup. The spanspec in turn refers to the starting and ending colspecs, which I need to compute my width correctly.
