The 'float' tag appears to do what I want, but it's not implemented yet (as of 0.20.5). Is there another way to get this kind of output?

Not if you want to have the side bar in a static content. A blind table in the body is the way to go (watch out for the usual memory problems).

I was afraid of that. I hacked together a little postprocessor that wraps all my content inside a large table that straddles the empty side-head area, and that appears to work fine on a 50-page test file. I can even bleed material into the main text area by interrupting the main table with a shorter one that has customized column widths. Ugly implementation, but 'twill have to do until the <fo:float> tag is supported. Thanks for the info!
