I agree it would be better to use ``tblparser.type === 'header'`` 

The ``type`` attribute here is similar to the scope definition for a cell in a table. I didn't use the word ``scope`` because I didn't want to conflict with the actual wording of the HTML specification. 

@nschonni, short term, do you think I should create and share a little script that would change that information? It could helpful for other projects based on table if they need to use the complex table parser.

From a long term perspective that would require to do a major update at the complex table parser and every project that depend on it. I need to say that I have in my private todo list an item about to fully revise and optimize the complex table parser.
