You are correct that LayoutStrategy, aka pluggable layout was at the heart
of the topic. And Peter is correct that the scope of modularization in LS
was at a different level than you were talking about. But I don't understand
Peter's point at all. If separation of concerns between page layout and
block layout is beneficial, then how much more so that neither of them
should be embedded in the FOTree??!! (Which FOP developers decided to redo
just last week). The fact that you are successfully modularizing trees into
branches and leaves is no argument against FOP modularizing the forest into
trees.
