It all depends on what order you should be expecting. If you scan the page in its whole width starting from the top you will find the footnote labeled 2 before the footnote labeled 1. This is basically what FOP is doing. Of course, it may seem more natural to start from the leftmost column, then go to the following one, etc. But this is particular to that case. With a right-to-left language it will be more natural to start from the rightmost column. Sometimes, the content will be such that the method above will be more natural. So this is a grey area, and the Recommendation doesn't say anything about that. Your best bet is to re-number the footnotes. Or use something else than footnotes (you may be happy with putting the notes in regular blocks just after the table, for example).
