[reportlab-users] Table borders

[Jerkize]

Greetings,

First time posting...  I'd like to recommend to the developers that 
table borders get drawn after the cell contents.  It *seems* like a 
fairly trivial patch.  My modified copy seems to be working fine.  
Maybe it's like that by design, but then I'd argue that's not the 
"correct" choice :-)

Thanks a lot for the library.
