I don't know if it's ready for prime time yet, but the XHTML 1.1 Working
Draft calls for "modules" -- chunks of the XHTML DTD that can be
incorporated into other applications in the way I think you want. There's
one for forms, one for images, etc., including one for tables. See:
http://web3.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-xhtml-modularization-20000105/xhtml_modules.html#sec_4.6
You might want to ask about its status on the XHTML-L list. See:
