Hi Dick,
My reading of the svn log indicates that this property was added to
compensate for the use of the old $title.margin.left parameter. It is
obsolete now, and I'll remove it from the next snapshot and release.
For background, the original way of indenting body text relative to
section titles was to set a page margin with the indent, then outdent
the titles using $title.margin.left to bring the titles back to zero
indent. Now $body.start.indent sets the indent for body text, and the
headers and footers are no longer affected, so that setting for indexes
is no longer needed.

I noticed something curious in the header.table template in pagesetup.xsl in
the fo stylesheets.
The first thing this template does is set the margin-left (or margin-right for
right-to-left languages) attribute to 0pt. It doesn't change the other margin.
I noticed because I set the margin in header.content properties to a negative
value to get an hanging header (that is, I want part of the header, in this
case the page number, in the outside margin). The hanging header works
everywhere except on the verso pages in the index because margin-left is reset
for the index.
I'm guessing there is a good reason for this, but I'm not sure what it is.
Does anyone know why this is the case?
Thanks,
Dick
