Who is asking? :)

I think the element should be considered along with all the other table-based sub-elements and stripped from the tree (leaving only their child nodes).

So...
<table role="presentation">
<caption>Hi</caption>
</table>

Would just result in a single text node:
"Hi"

I wouldn't assume to do otherwise.
