If you're already doing the layout - then you are right, IDServer is a waste. That would be the main reason for using it - is to let it deal with the complexities of content layout combined with the HJ engine. (and other misc. things like format import, etc.) IIRC, the hyphenation stuff in

A PDF file does not contain a data structure called a table. What may appear to you as a human being as a table is simply a series of lines, filled areas, text, etc. You would need to perform semantic analysis on the objects in question to determine if they meet your definition of a table.
