Does conditionality work for table cell borders?

Hi list,
When a table is continued across page breaks, I would expect the before-border of the table cells to be suppressed on all pages after the first (unless I explicitly set the conditionality to "retain"); however, in my example document, the borders are visible on the second page.
You can find my example FO document at https://www.dropbox.com/s/w679cjb9gampdq6/table-borders.fo?dl=0 and the result PDF document at https://www.dropbox.com/s/bpc5avwsrzb8k6j/table-borders.pdf?dl=0
I thought this might maybe only work for the table-row elements, so I tried it there, but the result is the same. Besides, as you can see in my example, I need the border for the *cells*, not the whole row (because I want a gap in the middle).
I use FOP 2.5.

What do I miss?

Thanks,
Christian

PS: I found http://apache-fop.1065347.n5.nabble.com/Omitting-Bottom-table-border-on-page-break-td37527.html, but this only points me at the conditionality, which should already implicitly be "discard" in my case.

Hi Christian,

The borders are actually specified on the table cells, not the table 
itself. Therefore conditionality only comes into effect when a cell 
spans the page.

Thanks,

Chris
