A problem surfacing with the first expectation is the "page x of y"
problem: The usual empty block with an "EOF"-ID at the end of all
content in the fo:flow ends up on the next-to-last page which causes the
last page to display "page n of n-1". Either the breaker has to detect
such an element and force it on the last page or a different approach
has to be taken to place the "EOF" marker.
Just a quick untested idea: what about adding a way get the page number of
the last page without the need to add a marked block and a
page-number-citation? ... wait, we can even avoid inventing something new:
the 1.1 specs define a fo:page-number-citation-last element!
If we don't have any more a block that must be necessarily placed in the
last page, we could use the width of the "finishing glue" (that could be
negative too) in the ending elements added by the LineLM, in order to
handle the difference between non-last page height and last page height.
If the last-page BPD is bigger, the width will be < 0, in other words the
last, forced page break has a "discount" on the content elements width; if
the last-page BPD is smaller, the width will be > 0, which means that we
build a page with the same height but some "reserved" space, unavailable
for the content areas.
