      Hello,

      I'v noticed that when importing word documents, the table that office connector imports to a Confluence page uses <td> and "class=highlight" E.g

      <td class="highlight">

      Is it possible to get doc import to use the correct method of tagging header cells?

      Header cells on the first column E.g

      <tr>
      	<th>Header cell</th>
      	<td>Normal cell</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
      	<th>Header cell</th>
      	<td>Normal cell</td>
      </tr>
      

      Header on the first row E.G

      <tr>
      	<th>Header cell</th>
      	<th>Header cell</th>
      </tr>
      <tr>
      	<td>Normal cell</td>
      	<td>Normal cell</td>
      </tr>
      

      This would be great improvement because Scroll Office Word export uses <th> as header row when exporting documents. And when creating a new table within Confluence the format in the first row and the first column is <th> if they are highlighted.

      But when importing a word the format is <td> with "class=highlight". Clearing all formatting and applying the header row or the header column doesn't change the HTML tags.

      Best regards
      Patrick
