Description

http://api.jquerymobile.com/table-reflow/#option-classes.reflowTable

classes.cellLabels (Default: "ui-table-cell-label"): "Class added to the first cell within each grouped header's column. This makes it easy to style these differently to visually delineate the column groups."

classes.reflowTable (Default: "ui-table-reflow"): "Class added to the generated label content added to each table cell based on the header name."

Pretty sure that the current description for reflowTable is actually the description for cellLabels, since ui-table-cell-label is added to a <b> element inside each cell that contains the header name. The reflowTable class (ui-table-reflow) is actually added to the table element. The current description for cellLabels makes no sense to me.

Research direction

Start at the table-reflow classes.reflowTable and classes.cellLabels entries linked in the issue. Compare each description with the documented class behavior: cellLabels is on the generated label content, while reflowTable is on the table element. Done means the two descriptions accurately match those roles.
