It has been a while since I did this. Probably the only way to be accurate is
to test all kinds of situations and see what actually happens. I assume that
testing and confirming is already a large part of the documentation role.

Correct. Confirmed by testing in 7.4.

Correct. Confirmed by testing.

> 3.  What does "if space is available" mean in this context?
Up to 100% relative size of a table - fitting in the text margins. (Same idea
in a frame.)

It always grows downward. I don't think that needs to be mentioned because that
is the natural experience with tables as you add content etc.

This is a bit of an extreme example. Minimal is a "fit to contents and nothing
more". In your case you minimized the table below "fit to content" status, and
thus it grew. Basically, minimize just gets rid of excess space.

It works until 7.0.4. This is bug 139511.
