They are not, as tables are commonly used simply for layout. Simple example,
the 5.2 Getting Started guide[1] which has 49 tables and only 10 have captions.
I've opened documents with tens of tables in them without a single
caption[2][3]. Table captions are useful when a user wishes to create a index
of tables.

> Also, it is repeatedly asked for this enhancement. So the request is valid.

Easy access to this function is already provided in the primary UI (the
toolbar), so it will not be available in the context menu.
