Description
The ASCII-art rectangular tables look funky in the output; the right-hand-side borders don't all line up. The HTML source has the correct number of spaces in each row, so the problem is that Scribble is emitting one space character per input space character, and the browser is doing its "normal" collapsing of whitespace.
I don't know whether the best solution is to make the offending doc code emit nbsp references there, or to set .RktIn { white-space: pre } in the CSS, or something else altogether.

Research direction
Start with drracket/scribblings/drracket/keybindings.scrbl at lines 181-185 and inspect the generated HTML and relevant CSS. Determine how the table's spaces are collapsed in browser output, then ensure the right-hand borders align consistently in the rendered documentation.
