start-indent / end-indent calculations for tables

[Manuel Mall <mm...@arcus.com.au>]

It appears the property subsystem is not calculating the 
start-indent/end-indent values correctly for fo:table. I would expect 
that a <fo:table border="5pt" border-collapse="separate"> would have 
calculated start-/end-indents of 5000 (same as for <fo:block 
border="5pt">). However, the values are 0 causing borders on tables to 
be positioned incorrectly, e.g protruding into the left margin of the 
region-body. See table_table-layout_fixed_1.xml as an example. (which 
in turn is another example of a testcase which currently passes 
although it probably shouldn't).

Forget about this - my mistake. I was under the misguided impression 
that:

<fo:block border="solid 5pt">...</fo:block>

is identical to:

<fo:block border="solid 5pt" margin="0pt">...</fo:block>

Apparently it's not!
