Thank you for all your comments and additions, Andreas!
It's good to be back after quite a long time (enough to forget the good old
habit of using JUnit!)

What I still cannot understand is why there is no such problem with
start-indent = "body-start", which is resolved ok ...

It's an interesting idea, and probably the easiest to implement.
Personally, I would have placed them all in the first page spanned by the
table, although this would be a bit more problematic in terms of relative order
between the footnotes. 
What do other think in this regard?

Anyway, I think this is a situation not perfectly covered by the specs, which
forbid footnotes in static-contents but say nothing about footnotes in table
headers / footers, which are not so different.

The condition defining where a block area returned by fo:footnote is permitted
does not explicitly take into account the situation when a single fo:foonote
generates several anchor areas in different pages, although the definition 

"The term anchor-area is defined to mean the last area that is generated and
returned by the fo:inline child of the fo:footnote."

could maybe be read as a justification for placing all the notes in the last
page where the table appears ...
