Comment:

 2. Fixed up the labels for the new custom field and the key/value pairs in
 the Custom Fields box. Had to use hidden labels, since there is no way
 without ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) to link the several
 fields to the header. In table navigation mode, it would be picked up, but
 when filling out forms, hidden labels have to be used.
 3. Reworked how fieldsets are exposed. Now, the fieldset is only present
 within the cell the form fields that are to be grouped are in. Firefox
 would otherwise create a grouping outside the table, since it does not
 allow a fieldset to spawn multiple table cells. To not cause any layout
 problems, the legend is hidden, but is still picked up by screen readers.
 Also tested in IE. Please see if this also works correct in Safari!
