Forgive me but I don't know what you want where you say "nested table:".
I'm assuming they have to have something in common, say the prefix "marginalia", otherwise there is no determinant trigger.
As I said earlier, you need to use group-starting-with="" in order to infer structure from a flat set of constructs.
I hope the example below (in HTML) helps. I'll leave the XSL-FO as an exercise. The crux of your issue is how the XSLT works. When you look at the resulting HTML below you'll see your table as you've indicated above.

My PDF output should look like this:
----------------------------------------------- | <marginalia1> | (Nested table:) <title> | | |-----------------------------| | | (Nested table:) <maintext1> | | |-----------------------------| | | (Nested table:) <maintext2> | |---------------------------------------------| | <marginalia2> | (Nested table:) <maintext2> | | |-----------------------------| | | (Nested table:) <maintext3> | |---------------------------------------------| | <marginalia3> | (Nested table:) <maintext4> | -----------------------------------------------

Yes, all of the elements have unique names.
