Linter should look for unclosed table synatx
Closed, DuplicatePublicFeature

Description

Feature summary (what you would like to be able to do and where):

There should be a linter to find and list unclosed table syntax. Such as a sub table opened within a cell and not subsequently closed within that cell, or within a DIV.

Use case(s) (list the steps that you performed to discover that problem, and describe the actual underlying problem which you want to solve. Do not describe only a solution):

Where I had unclosed tables generated from a template.

This eventually manifested as a pair of Missing DIV/Stripped DIV errors, in a much higher level template which contained the table syntax concerned.

Benefits (why should this be implemented?):

Identify badly constructed/malformed tables.
