Having those attributes apply on the cells of the LiveData would be ideal and would indeed fix the differences you noticed, including XLIT-20. But LiveData doesn't allow for this at the moment. Having a jsx to edit the LiveData dom is a way to get the desired result.
I wrote a fix for now that removes padding on the LiveData cell and applies it on the container inside the cell. Allowing to visually style the whole cell. I should continue investigating and add a jsx that does the appropriate modifications.
