 * You cannot set the background to a custom image.
 * You must have the table sized to be full screen (Table headers are nice, really; the problem is that they scroll with your UITableView).
 * Have you ever needed to attach a subview in a UITableViewController? (This is ideal when you want to display a pop up message to your user, briefly display a view over your table that dims the table and makes it inaccessible to touches, or if you simply want to present some options.)
