Semantics
A structure containing one or more row elements in a tabular container.
Additional info from the ARIA specification
The rowgroup role establishes a relationship with its accessibility children of role row. It is a structural equivalent to the thead, tfoot, and tbody elements in an HTML table element.
Authors MUST ensure elements with role rowgroup are accessibility children of an element with the role grid, table, or treegrid.
