One problem with a "power table" is that it's only "comments" -- it's not used to generate the netlist. It's quite possible a designer could change the power connection for the symbol but forget to update the table, or vice-versa. Or even change the symbol in the library, and the table, but somehow the library change doesn't get updated into the schematic (something many of us have seen more than once).
PERSONALLY, I don't find a couple extra pins per IC that cluttering. I also find it easier to have the power net listed there than having to flip to another page (especially since that "flipping" is usually on a pdf file!). HOWEVER, much of this stuff IS personal preference -- to each his own!
