Hi Lennart, I finally got around to making a small example that illustrates the splitInrow=0 differences.

You can see the patched (with splitInrow=0) and unpatched results here

https://www.reportlab.com/ftp/lennart/

the generating script is lennart-example.py and the two pdfs illustrate behaviour unpatched and patched with 
splitInRow=0 as an argument.

I changed the your patch so by default it starts with splitInRow = 0. I don't think we should change behaviour at all 
unless it's done explicitly.

To my eye it looks as though the patch has changed the behaviour regarding space around the split table.
