I would welcome an option to avoid longtable. I'm working on a book that 
will include some tables and I need them to be floats. If I don't have an 
easier solution, I may try to use a script to convert the tables to raw 
LaTeX and then modify the string with regular expressions to turn it into 
some variant of tabular.
