AFAIK, it's a feature. If you want the table toolbar to not disturb your work space, when it just drag it and anchor it below the text area: I always put there all the contextual toolbars. Another option is to close forever that toolbar (unchecking it when it appears) and create a custom one (Tools > Customize > Toolbars tab) with the buttons you need: custom toolbars are not contextual.
