It's a shorthand. See

- Did I use absolute-position the wrong way?
This property is not yet implemented.

A related question: I tried both Fop and XEP on the file above. XEP rendered it with the text aligned to the top of the page, not leaving the margin="1cm" of the region-body. Isn't absolute-position relative to the parent element?

The term in the spec is "contining area". Perhaps XEP was confused becuase you used margin="1cm" instead of margin-top="1cm". I'm not sure whether the margin shorthand is even valid on region definitions.

Fop rendered it correctly, except that it did not respect the 'left="5cm"', it just aligned it to the left of the page-region.
Unless you use position="absolute" instead of absolute-position="fixed"
FOP ignores all positioning attributes.
