I think "keep-with-next" is closer to what I want.  I replaced 
        break-before="page"
with
        keep-with-next="always"
but that formatted the same as with the vanilla DocBook XSL template.

And when I looked at the produced FO, I saw that the <fo:block>
surrounding the <fo:block> containing the title text, it already had a
keep-with-next.within-column attribute:

  <fo:block id="d0e152">
    <fo:block>
      <fo:block keep-together="always" margin-left="-4pc"
      font-family="Helvetica">
        <fo:block keep-with-next.within-column="always">
          <fo:block font-size="14pt" keep-with-next="always"
          font-weight="bold" font-family="Helvetica"
          space-before.minimum="1em" space-before.optimum="1.5em"
          space-before.maximum="2em">Configure mouse</fo:block>
        </fo:block>
      </fo:block>
    </fo:block>
  </fo:block>

So why does the title separate from the body of the section?  Because
of confusion about what's the "next" to stay with?
