<thead> header not repeating in print-preview.

Reported by padma...@gmail.com, Jul 15 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.106 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Create html page with single header row and <tbody> contents exeeding one page.
2. Look at print preview
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
Contents of <thead> tag should have repeated on second page and proceeding page.

What went wrong?
No matter how much the contents of <thead> is, even it is a single line header, its not repeating in print preview even after styling using CSS (should have worked without CSS).

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 51.0.2704.106  Channel: stable
OS Version: 14.04
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0

I've visited this bug (https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=621258&q=thead%20not%20repeating%20in%20print%20preview&colspec=ID%20Pri%20M%20Stars%20ReleaseBlock%20Component%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20OS%20Modified). It says the header won't repeat only if it exceeds some width but in my case I can't get header to repeat even with single line. Since Opera browser also integrated some of chrome features (I suspect it also integrated printing feature), it doesn't work either in Opera. Since web apps are increasing and report generation is most important I prefer using inbuilt features only. Please eliminate this bug.

Thank you.

Fixed in Chrome 53.

Comment 7 by padma...@gmail.com, Jul 21 2016

Hello @thestig. I didn't get you. Fixed in Chrome 53 means is it already released or you meant to say it will be fixed in Chrome 53?

Because when I go to about Google Chrome page it will check for update but no update is suggested. That means its already in its latest version right? The current version is showing 51.0..... in Ubuntu OS.
re: comment 7 - you have to understand Chrome release channels to understand why I said it's fixed in 53, which is currently dev channel. https://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel (52 is beta, 51 is stable)
