Martin Grigorov resolved WICKET-4153.
-------------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

Closing as "Won't Fix".

HTML5 says it is allowed to use empty elements:
"The table, thead, tbody, tfoot, tr, ol, ul and dl elements are allowed to be empty in HTML."

If strict XHTML compliance is needed then a custom data table component should be used.

> When a DataTable is rendered without records, the tbody section is empty. This violates the html spec.
> From the spec:
> "When present, each THEAD, TFOOT, and TBODY contains a row group. Each row group must contain at least one row, defined by the TR element."
> and
> "The THEAD, TFOOT, and TBODY sections must contain the same number of columns."
