Thanks for pointing this out, and I did indeed rewrite the code, so it
would work with the TABLE mechanism. It's a bit like breaking a
butterfly with a wheel. Please have a look at the following code, as I
think I may have found bug in the TABLE mechanism.
The following code does exactly what I want but it has a pretty bad
hack on line 7, where I reference all columns by
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8][1,2,3] rather than using the [r][1,2,3], since the
latter does not work as expected. It seems that statements concerning
columns take precedence before statements that concern rows. In the
example below, \setupTABLE[c][1,2,3][align=right] overwrites
\setupTABLE[r][1,2][align=center] --- no matter where you put the
latter (before or after the former statement). At least for me, this
is rather unintuitive.

Is this a bug? Is this a feature?
Thanks.
