Update: Jean-Christophe Malapert wrote to me that he had implemented in 
JsVotable a large subset of the VOTable standard to handle SIA/SSA/SCS 
replies, but because of VOTable evolution he is not sure this still 
works. Furthermore, the library had not been tested with TAP and is not 
maintained anymore, so he mentions it's better not to consider it here.
