Seifeddine Dridi commented on FOP-2293:
---------------------------------------
Interesting read! The proposal is indirectly related to what I'm doing and it
would useful to add such features to FOP. However, I'm not sure if the current
design of FOP allows such flexibility in the choice of the text-breaking
algorithm since the layout engine seems to be mainly tied around the Knuth &
Plass implementation.

> I have been working on an extension for whitespace management, similar to
> what's described here:
> http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/WhitespaceManagement
> The logic of the extension is very simple: the user defines a set of
> alternatives that he wishes to insert at the end of a page, then if there is
> enough space left, FOP will pick the alternative that best matches the user's
> selection criteria (first fit, smallest fit, biggest fit).
> This is my first work on FOP and it took me almost 2 months to reach this
> stage in development. But it's not the end of course, so I'm relying on your
> feedback to improve it.
> Thank you
