Q: "Why is the header of the table in the header of the page, rather than just
being the header of the table itself?"

A: The table-header repeating is too limited for our purposes. It is not
guaranteed that the repeated header is the last or the only one, manual
pagebreaks inside the report (which can happen everywhere) require us to break
the table to apply the pagebreak on a paragraph or table-tag. 

So there is only a very narrow case where we could use the repeat-table-header
feature of OOW, so our code becomes cleaner and more maintainable by plainly
heading for the general case and dropping the page/repeated-group-header into
the Page-Header-Section of the writer instead.

Repeated headers are not part of the documents 'normal-flow' - they are defined
in the document's normal-flow and then copied on the header/footer sections. The
fact that the only way to activate a new page-header/footer is to apply a new
page-template (which is implemented to imply a forced-pagebreak) makes it
impossible for us to reduce the numbers of executed pagebreaks here.
