After looking at the code, I do not think this is needed. Such tables
are always fully included in only one page (end-ftable checks
that). It is composed of:

TABLE:
  ADDWF PCL,F
  RETLW   CHOICE0
  RETLW   CHOICE1
    ...

It means that to be able to call TABLE, one needs to have the PCLATH
set to this page already. The situation in your jump tables is
different, because you call other words from there, which is not the
case in data tables.
