[O] org-fill-paragraph leaves point at end of table

Calling `org-fill-paragraph' inside a table leaves point at the end of
the table, for reasons that are totally unclear to me.

I've tested this with up-to-date org and emacs -Q, so I'm hoping it's
reproducible. I edebugged org-fill-paragraph, and it appears to do the
right thing, going from the save-excursion to the cond to the org-table
cond statement, and there calling `org-table-align'. That works
correctly, but stepping forward you come to the end of the enclosing
`save-excursion', and emerging from `save-excursion' puts point at the
end of the table -- precisely what it's not supposed to do!

I made a minimum sexp to reproduce the relevant bits of
org-fill-paragraph:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
  (save-excursion
    (let ((element (org-element-at-point)))
      (case (org-element-type element)
        (table-row (org-table-align) t))))
#+END_SRC

Putting point in a table and eval'ing that also leaves point at the end
of the table. I tried using (call-interactively 'org-table-align) and it
did the same thing.

I'm baffled, particularly as it doesn't do this for any other element
type. Any clever ideas? M-q after a bit of typing is already stuck in my
fingers, and this bit of strangeness doesn't set the mark, so editing
long tables is a pain...

Thanks!
