String as DomContent doesn't work for table-related elements

[bobby]

Expected:

(.log js/console (single-node "<tr><td>Foo</td></tr>"))

to print to the console:

<tr><td>Foo</td></tr>

i.e. a Table Row Element

Actual

(.log js/console (single-node "<tr><td>Foo</td></tr>"))

printed to the console:

Foo

i.e. a Text Node Element

This discrepancy is due to a known bug in goog.dom.htmlToDocumentFragment: http://code.google.com/p/closure-library/issues/detail?id=210. The TR and TD (as well as TH, THEAD, TBODY, TFOOT) tags are stripped out when converting from a string to DOM elements, leaving only concatenated text nodes.

This issue impacts a use case that I think is quite common -- A string containing a table row is used as a template for each element of a collection, it is manipulated and inserted into the DOM.
