I think this is a bug in current master.  Commit 299016266ed1 (New
action NXAST_RESUBMIT_TABLE.) introduced this behavior where
OFPP_TABLE resubmits to the current table, without any explanation
why.  I agree that it makes more sense to resubmit to table 0, and I
think this was just a typo in that commit.

I sent out a commit to change the behavior back on current master:
