I've just added changes to make use of #+attr_texinfo: with
descriptive lists.  Thank you for making me revisit this.  It accepts
two attributes at the moment:

- :table-type :: This accepts one of the following: "table" "ftable"
"vtable".  If the value is not one of these it will default to "table"
- :indic :: This is the markup to be used on the first column of the
table.  It requires the "@" prefix to the command to be used.
