That reminds me, is there any reason not to make table-layout="fixed"
the default for fop users?

<xsl:attribute-set name="table.table.properties">
  <xsl:attribute
name="border-before-width.conditionality">retain</xsl:attribute>
  <xsl:attribute name="border-collapse">collapse</xsl:attribute>
  <xsl:attribute name="table-layout">
    <xsl:choose>
      <xsl:when test="$fop.extensions != 0 and $fop1.extensions !=
0">fixed</xsl:when>
      <xsl:otherwise>auto</xsl:otherwise>
    </xsl:choose>
  </xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>

This would avoid messages like the following from fop:

WARNING: The following feature isn't implemented by Apache FOP, yet:
table-layout="auto" (on fo:table) (See position 1371:1364)
