* You know that:

table:before {
    display: block;
    content: "SECTION TITLE";
    font-weight: bold;
    font-size: large;
}

would give you something looking like:

<h2>SECTION TITLE</h2>

* You also know that:

table:before {
    display: table-row;
    content: row(cell("TABLE HEADER"));
    font-weight: bold;
}

would give you something looking like:

<thead><tr><th>TABLE HEADER</th></tr></thead>

* But, unfortunately, as you have guessed it, you cannot have both.
