Summary
When an article is created or updated through the REST API / MCP then the `style` attribute on table <td> tags are removed, undoing styling that was applied in the web editor to customize colors or widths.
Steps to Reproduce
- Use the Knowledge web editor to create an article with a table, assign colors the to the column headers and adjust the column widths.
- Use the REST API / MCP to retrieve the article HTML, note that the retrieved article’s body contains the `style` attribute defining background-color and width on the <td> tags.
- Use the REST API / MCP to re-save the article as-is.
- In the web editor refresh the article and note that the table styling was removed.
- Use the REST API / MCP to retrieve the article HTML, note that the retrieved article’s body no longer contains the `style` attribute on the <td> tags.
Expected Result
The `style` attribute on the <td> tags defining the background-color and column width is preserved.
Actual Result
The `style` attribute on the <td> tags is removed.
