Rowspan with nested table or columns not spanning the rows

[SaWey]

When trying to nest a table inside a cell with a rowspan defined, the nested table is not rendered correctly.
It is not spanning the defined number of rows, it is only enlarging the current row.
Using columns generates the same result.

Here is my docdef:

var dd ={
    content : [{
            table : {
                widths : [80, 250, 170],
                body : [
                    [
                        {text : 'Row 1'}, {text : "Some text here"}, 
                        {rowSpan : 3,
                            columns : [
                                {text: "test data in rowspan"}, 
                                {text : " Bigger font", width : '*', margin : [10, 14],fontSize : 20,}
                            ]
                        }
                    ],
                    [{text : 'Row 2 title'}, {text : "Row 2 data"}, {}],
                    [{text : 'Row 3 title'}, {text : "Row 3 data"}, {}],
                ]
            }
        },
    ]
}

Also experiencing this and wanted to add a screenshot of the behavior.
The rows Test1 and Test2 should have the same height, since the nested table has a rowSpan of 2. But instead the Test2 row is pushed down.
Has anyone found a workaround yet?

Code:

let content = [];
let nestedTable = {
    rowSpan: 2,
    table: { headerRows: 1, body: [["Nested1", "Nested2"], ["Nested3", "Nested4"]] }
}
content.push({
    table: { headerRows: 1, body: [["Test1", nestedTable], ["Test2", {}]] }
});

What is causing this behavior?
How can we solve this? How can I help?

It is a real big problem for me right now, and i really need to make this work.
Thanks a lot!
