Does not pickup Table Has No TH #142

Tables should have to have a header or role presentation but currently only check seems to be manually. Could pa11y be configured to pick these up?

Hi @smustgrave,

Thanks for creating this issue. You're right in that tables need either headers in the case of a data table, or role="presentation" in the case of layout tables.

Unfortunately, Pa11y is not able to mark these as an issue. Pa11y is only able to use the tests as provided by HTML_CodeSniffer (the default), or axe, so it's up to them to implement this guidance. Neither of them currently have tests for this issue as far as I know.
