There are two sides to this. On one side there is someone who wants to breast feed their baby and sees nothing wrong with doing so and who would be upset if forced to hide away in some toilet to do it.

On the other side is someone who finds breast feeding offensive and is upset if forced to watch it.

So, whatever is done, someone is going to be upset.

Now in my eyes the nursing mother has much more reason to be upset. She may have started her meal when the baby wanted feeding. If she were to go to the toilet to feed it her food would probably be cold when she returned or if she was on her own it was cleared away by some waiter who thought it was finished with. If she had remained at the table she could have been feeding the baby and herself at the same time.

The person who objected could have easily moved their position slightly or just taken the decision to concentrate on eating rather than trying to sneak a glance at what was going on.
