Well, as you keep insisting, here it is.  

Could I advise that this not be included in the official sources and 
insist that it either be disabled by conditional compilation or turned
off by default, if it is included.

It has mainly been done to demonstrate how many pages actually contain
hidden tables.  I've only done a cursory analysis of the code, and, although
I don't expect anything to break, there may be cases where the output 
doesn't format well.
