Comment:

 Refreshed patch fixes Network Themes and Network Plugins table headers on
 small screens, now they look the same. See screenshot below. Please notice
 there would be several things to improve about List Tables CSS, overly
 complicated CSS, misalignments, visual inconsistencies, etc. by the way
 pixel-perfection is outside the scope of this ticket.

 Making the "Select All" cell a `TD` instead of a `TH` greatly improves the
 way screen readers read out the table content, avoiding unnecessary
 repetition and it's also more semantic code.

 See related #25408. Maybe it would make sense to coordinate these two
 tickets.
