How do rev tables work?

I have some custom properties in my drawing. When I insert the rev table,
the headings come in, but not the information from my custom properties.
The information I fill into the rev table goes back into my properties.
This is backwards. It would be nice if it would create a new revision row
if it saw a different rev level than the last row's rev. Is there some
logic I'm missing? The help is no help.

Also, if I select a column then change it to custom property, it doesn't
take the info from the custom property. In addition, if I select that same
column again, the properties box is blank. What the heck?

Funny thing: I've asked this question twice now (slightly different).
Nobody seems to know how rev tables work. It could be I'm not giving enough
time for a response, however, it looks like I'm the resident expert.

Therefore, in my expert opinion, I'd say there is no logic built into rev
tables, where custom properties are concerned. They just look pretty, and
are a bit easier to use than embedded objects. That's not really a negative
statement. I like them far better than Excel rev tables. They lock into
position, can have a dimension for height and width, and are easily edited.
