I see several problems with the CSS approach.

1) After reading the browser compatibility list and comparing it with log stats of several sites to which I have access to I must say that 10-15% of users will have problems with an all CSS design.

2) Switching to an all CSS design will without a doubt break compatiblity (completely) with every customized design. Forcing users to go through an extensive rework of their customizations.

3) Tableless CSS requires the use of fairly complex CSS, with which many people are not familiar with (I being one of those people)/ CSS is nice and simple for basic things but for more complicated things, tables are easier to visualize and use.

4) It'll take A LOT of time to do.
