I believe that's about the best way you can do it...at least, that's
how *I* have been doing it for MANY years.
Although I actually create a TableSpacer style and apply that style to
the para marker after the table so I can not only easily adjust the
spacing, but also find them all once the doc is finished to make any
of those "tweaking" fixes to pull things up/push down as needed.
If someone knows a better way, I'd like to hear about it, too! ;-)

When creating tables, I would like to have a setting "space after" to ensure
some spacing without using empty paragraphs.
I can do this for each table by changing Table Properties, setting the text
wrapping to "Around", and then setting the distance from surrounding text
via "Positioning". However, I can't get at this setting when creating or
modifying a Table Style.
Is this at all possible, or is there another way to automatically insert the
required spacing? Right now I use an extra paragraph, and just had to track
down and remove an empty page because the table was at the very end of both
a chapter and a page.
Any help appreciated!
