A few notes: badness/demerits output?

And I think it would be beneficial to have incremental line breaking,
where you have as an input (and output) the list of current best
breakpoints.  That would make it possible to have text flow around
shapes without requiring everything to fit a fixed base line distance.

It also would make it possible to develop strategies for adjusting line
break decisions depending on pagebreaks (\brokenpenalty, \widowpenalty
and their ilk can't have the paragraph rebroken right now, making them
pretty useless with fixed bottom page layouts).
