Styling 'attachments' tables - (need something like: table class="attachments")

If I attach files to a node, the attachments are displayed as links in a generic table:

Example:

<table>
 <tr><th>Attachment</th><th>Size</th> </tr>
 ...

I would like to style these attachment tables differently from other tables.
Something like this:

I don't want comments to have subjects -- period. Can't I just use the timestamp as title link?

Goal: Each comment should have no subject-based title whatsoever ( be it user created or auto-generated); instead, the title should be formed by the author's name and timestamp. The author's name should link to the author page and the timestamp should be the permanent link to this particular comment.

Examples of this convention in use:
http://annevankesteren.nl/archives/2005/03/namespaces#comments
http://goldenfiddle.com/2005/03/25/keep-it-simple/
http://larsholst.info/blog/2005/02/24/phd/#comments
http://joi.ito.com/archives/2005/03/26/back_to_japan.html#comments

I can turn off the subject field in the comment form but then it it just automatically generates a title for the comment which can be confusing and repetitive, especially for short comments.

I can use my theme's comment.tpl.php to remove the title, but when I do that, there is no way to link to the individual comment anymore because the $title variable has the link markup hardcoded into it. I can't access the timestamp and author's name separately because they appear to be hardcoded into the $submitted variable.

Are these comment variables really this inflexible? The type of design/markup I am trying to create is extremely easy to achieve in other systems(wordpress, mt, etc.), what's more, this kind of content design seems very common all over the web so I'm surprised it is so difficult to produce.
