Hans, 

The "\synchronizeoutput" seemed to fix this trivial example, but it doesn't seem to fix other illustrations of this behavior.  Is the "\synchronizeoutput" something that I should place at the end of every block of content (paras, sections, lists, figures, equations, etc.) in order to ensure that tables split properly.  If not, is there a general workaround for this table issue that I can apply in the meantime while LuaTeX is still in development?  I'm generating ConTeXt from XSL, so its very easy to make a system wide change of how the content is generated.

By the way, the LuaTeX on live.contextgarden.net seems to be broken ("FatalError: Your format does not match the base files!")

Cheers,
Mike
