I guess the easiest way would be to create an 1:n IRRE relation between the
FAQ table and tt_content.
Then just install the ICE pack extensions and fill in one ICE box as the
child of the FAQ.
Inside the ICE box you can create all the necessary content elements (ICE or
default doesn't matter, so tables are possible even though ICE itself
doesn't offer tables yet).
Finally add an HTML template and/or assign an ICE flavor to the ICE box to
insert the CSS positioning for the elements.
Each flavored element will get a surrounding box with position:relative, so
even absolute positioning should be possible besides the usual floats and
you will get the option for some nicely shaped corners as well.
