Arved, I agree that there is no need to tie the rendering to any particular model, as long as the results are equivalent. The discussions that span this list and the Xslfo-proc-devel list testify that there are many approaches to process of layout. However, if I am reading this correctly, the proposal is to clarify the text of the spec. In that context, the treatment of the area tree and its relationship to the fo tree must be coherent and consistent, or we will be in even deeper difficulties.
