Sure, I've filed FOP-2582 for this.

Hmm...an interesting idea. My example was simplified; in reality there
are differences in the content that will make it much less predictable
in terms of how many lines would fit on the page. But perhaps with some
experimentation an estimate in the right ballpark would be better than
nothing.

Yep, if I find some free time this weekend I'll take a look at that and
build a version with the patch applied.

Hi,

from my POV, integer value seems to behave as 'auto' does. That sounds
like a bug.

Please, can you file in a bug entry on JIRA, attaching your modified
FO, resulting PDF, and if possible, expected result.
