Issue 15: Missing ID/HEADERS associations in data tables

Issue Summary

Data tables are used frequently in many modules such as Assignments, Assessments, Discussions, Mail, etc. The lack of ID/HEADERS associations makes it difficult or sometimes impossible for screen reader users to associate a given data cell with its corresponding column and/or row headings.
