Please send your feature request (probably with R code contribution) to 
the package maintainer, David Dahl (in CC).

Try these few lines for example:
library(xtable)
q-data.frame(quantile(rnorm(100)))
xtable(q)
 
This produces:

% latex table generated in R 1.9.1 by xtable 1.2-3 package
% Sat Aug 28 16:11:05 2004
\begin{table}[ht]
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular}{rr}
\hline
  quantile.rnorm.100.. \\
\hline
0%  $-$2.02 \\
25%  $-$0.70 \\
50%  $-$0.16 \\
75%  0.54 \\
100%  2.16 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{center}
\end{table}
