Me too.

For starters, tables outside of floats don't get wrapped properly.
Looking over the code doesn't give me any obvious ways to fix things,
either -- I see the InsetFloat:: object (insets/insetfloat.C) generates
the <table> and </table> tags, and LyXTabular::DocBook() (tabular.C)
generates everything in between. 

I'd code up an ugly hack like setting & testing a global, but then
again I'm a tech writer instead of a Real Programmer. The most
winning behavior IMO would be to wrap non-floating tables in
<informaltable> ... </informaltable> (no title/caption necessary).

Off to stir things up in lyx-doc...
