It isn't incorrect in any way!  It may not be what you want, but it 
isn't incorrect.  It is well within the standard.

This isn't an issue for the developers, it is an issue for your 
stylesheet, so your criticism is misdirected.  Because you have not 
specified the width of the table, or the width of the column in which 
the table lives, the processor can choose any width it wants 
to.  Thus, it is up to you to force the table to be as wide as you need.

Per XSL-FO 1.1. 6.7.3 fo:table, your stylesheet is requesting 
automatic table layout and so the processor is automatically laying 
out your table ... so you have no right to say that the developers 
are doing things incorrectly.

When you are using automatic table layout, you have to adjust the 
table content to give you what you want, which is why I gave you the 
direction to try keeping line content together at the block level.

I hope this helps.
