... 1) Set up a borderless table with the same measurements -- Graphics placed in the left column don't flow with the text in the right column. Seeing as some of the books in this format run over 50 pages, it would be a pain to fix the pagination manually. It would also clash with master documents.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "Graphics... don't flow with the text".
They do if they are anchored to the text in the right column. You can't drag the graphics to position it--if you do, Writer stupidly insists on moving the anchor--but you can enter a negative horizontal position using the Position and Size dialog. Once that's done, the graphics will follow the text automatically, as long as the anchor stays with the text in the right-hand column.
Alternatively, you can insert rows in the table and anchor the graphics in the left column.
Based only on your brief description, I would try going this route.
3) Use a page-anchored frame -- This *almost* works... if there was a way to put it in the page style definition, I'd make the rest of it work.
I would avoid using frames like this anyway. They're fine for inserts but too much of a nuisance for the running text.
4) Make the default indent 5.25 inches -- I'd prefer not to do this, since I'd need a duplicate set of styles (without indent) for tables. ...
This seems workable to me. I don't understand why you say you need two sets of styles. Don't you need a distinct set of styles for table content anyway?
