Hello Andrew.
I went overboard with this twenty years ago, and wrote a slew of macros to deal with partial tables.
I realized that the selection could start either within or without a table, and could end within or without.
If the end points were outside tables, then ENTIRE applied.
But if either or both end points were in a table, one could ask for ENTIRE (that is, all tables embraced by the selection) or FRACTIONAL.
As well I had a method for processing just the bounding tables OR the tables excluding the bounding tables.

At the time I was doing a great deal of batch-processing - document conversion and cleansing - and this all made sense!
Cheers, Chris
