Any thoughts? Any body?
If there are two headlines each with the same set of table templates but
different data in each, org-table-iterate-buffer-tables will converge;
however the convergence may yield incorrect results.
I suppose there are two options at the moment,
rename all tables in heading 1 to heading1summary, heading1A,
heading1B, etc. and heading2summary, heading2A, heading2B, etc. and
change all remote references to reflect this, or
set up separate org files for each set of tables although the
tables pertain to the same over all subject.
Neither is really acceptable, but the second is the least trouble.
A third choice is worse, narrow to the heading and use org-table-iterate
on each table. At least the buffer should not be widened in that case.
I have missed some documentation? I thought this would be a useful
feature much the same way that export-subtree.

Please see the attached example. If I call

calculated using the referenced tables in heading "first set of
tables" and the tables in the second heading are disregarded.
Without going into the details there are times when I use certain form
tables in separate headlines in the same file. The entries are
different in each and I believe that a function perhaps
"org-table-iterate-subtree-tables" would be a useful addition to
org-table.el.
Please note that narrowing the buffer to the second headline does not
help since the code in org-table-iterate-buffer-tables widens the buffer.
