    You are right. 'row' / 'column' in fact seems to be easier.

    I mean something like
    
    <table:table-template table:top-left-corner="row" ...>
       <table:top-row table:style-name="graystyle"/>
       ...
    </table:table-template>
    
    That is, we use the terms "top" whenever the top (or first) row is 
    referenced and "left" whenever the left (or first) column is referenced.
    
    Best regards
    
    Michael
