I'd like to make one entry within a particular column have a second
column within it. eg.

|-----|
|--|--|
|-----|

One way to do this would be to set colspan to 2 for the first and third
columns, but... might it, instead, be possible to do something like
setting colspan to 1/2 for the second column?

Doing this would mean that I wouldn't have to repeat the same blurp of
text over and over again, and would, ultimately, result in a much
smaller file.

A good try, anyway. I would create a second table within that cell, or you
could use CSS containers the same way.
