Description
We are deprecating some MathML attributes in favor of the equivalent ones in CSS. In particular, the CSS style text-align seems a good substitute for denomalign and numalign (since the deprecation in w3c/mathml#30). For the same reasons, it is also a good candidate to replace the columnalign attribute in tables.
For example,
<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">
<mfrac>
<mn style="text-align:right">1</mn>
<mn>1000</mn>
</mfrac>
</math>
with result

Research direction
Start with the issue's MathML fraction example and the linked W3C columnalign reference, then review the discussion and the deprecation context in w3c/mathml#30. Determine which specification or interoperability changes are required for text-align on fractions and tables; done should be an agreed, testable definition of the supported behavior.
