You need to call as.data.frame.table directly here. If we alter the generic we would need to alter all the many methods too (including those in various CRAN packages), and I am not sure this would be worth it (rather than clarifying the documentation).
This was a user-contributed enhancement that seems to have caused more problem that its value.
