Yep, because the block does not establish its own reference area, the indent of 
0pt on the table is 
relative to the ancestor reference area of the block.

... and a lot of users/authors with you, I think. That's precisely why Jeremias 
dedicated a Wiki page to 
the issue.

Correct. The block-container establishes a new reference area, that will serve 
as a basis for computing 
the offset of the enclosed table. 
One small remark: using 'start-indent' instead of 'margin-left' is considered 
slightly better style, since 
start-indent is a 'native' XSL-FO property. 
margin-left is defined to preserve compatibility with CSS; it is translated 
into start-indent behind the 
scenes anyway... margin-left is not inherited, but the computed start-indent 
is, so it really makes no 
difference.

Cheers
