columns acts on the whole page, not on individual components, and tables
are independent things

you can add 

\noalign{\blank[small]}

between rows, ot alternatively add to cont-new.tex: 

\def\complexTableTB[#1]{\TABLEnoalign{\blanko[#1]}}
\def\simpleTableTB     {\TABLEnoalign{\blanko}}

\def\TabulateTB
  {\complexorsimpleTable{TB}}

\def\doTableinterline% #1 
  {\ifnum\currentTABLEcolumn>\maxTABLEcolumn
     \chuckTABLEautorow
   \else\ifnum\currentTABLEcolumn=0
     \TABLEnoalign
       {\global\let\checkTABLEautorow=\empty
        \global\let\chuckTABLEautorow=\empty}%
   \else
     \setTABLEerror\TABLEmissingcolumn
     \handleTABLEerror
   \fi\fi
   \complexorsimpleTable} % {#1} 

\def\TableHL{\doTableinterline{HL}}
\def\TableTB{\doTableinterline{TB}}

\appendtoks\let\TB\TableTB   \to\everytable
\appendtoks\let\TB\TabulateTB\to\everytabulate

And then use \TB 

\starttabulate
\NC text \NC text \NC \NR 
\TB[small]
\NC text \NC text \NC \NR 
\TB[4*big]
\NC text \NC text \NC \NR 
\stoptabulate

\starttable[|||]
\VL text \VL text \VL \AR 
\TB[small]
\VL text \VL text \VL \AR 
\TB[4*big]
\VL text \VL text \VL \AR 
\stoptable


I have no time to fully integrate and test this now, so for the moment it's
cont-new functionality
