Yes, and also the vertical spacing around the table.  Since I'm 
interested in typesetting DocBook files, I'd like to avoid having to 
specify this stuff locally (though maybe Simon has an elegant solution 
for these issues?).

The other reason I'm looking into tables now is because of these fonts 
I'm installing, which all have special tabular figures that I'd like to 
be able to use (in the same way I've set up the footnote fonts).

Thanks for the example doc, BTW!
