Thank you very much.

Now, for the real question: has anybody been able to set/use
conditionals inside tabular environments, in particular
\starttable(s)...\stoptable(s)?

It seems that if I happen to use \global\<conditional>true or
\global\<conditional>false many errors about extra or missing
\noaligns and \spans pop up. Is this a TeX thing?

indeed tex does not like interference [modes, i.e. \doifmode cum suis are 
more robust]

it works better in starttabulate/bTABLE

I need to use them in tables. What can I use?

BTW, while we're talking about it: is there a way to let a table
head/tail know if it's the first/last row in the table altogether?
I need this to insert a (...continued) or (continued ...) message
when appropriate.
