Sure. I've identified an issue on the master branch where, if the cursor is

not inside the table at WS, `org-table-begin' in `org-table-header-set-header'

gets the beginning position of the next table in the buffer.

so `(pos-visible-in-window-p beg)' returns true, causing the header overlay

of the table at WS to not display.

Moving point to WS ensures`org-table-begin' to get the beginning position

of the table at WS, regardless of the cursor position, resolves the

above problem.

Thanks for the patch!
May you please explain in more details what problem you are trying to
solve?

Moving point to WS and then immediately to the beginning of the table
makes no difference. So, your patch does nothing.
