XSLT 2.0 makes it much easier:

------------------------------------------------------------
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
                version="2.0">

  <xsl:output method="xml"/>

  <xsl:template match="root">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:for-each-group
        select="*"
        group-ending-with="table">
        <table>
          <xsl:apply-templates select="current-group()"/>
        </table>
      </xsl:for-each-group>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="table">
    <xsl:apply-templates/>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template match="*">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates/>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
------------------------------------------------------------

You don't show any attributes, so I didn't add anything to handle them.
