I'm finding some really strange behavior dealing with page-sequence-masters,
page-sequences, and the margins of the region body in FOP 0.92beta.

If you have a page-sequence master that has an initial page that is unique,
then has a repeated page choice (even and odd pages), then certain things
start to happen. I'm not even sure I can fully explain what all the
wierdness is.

So, the situation looks something like this in FO:

        <fo:page-sequence-master master-name="chapter">
            <fo:single-page-master-reference
master-reference="chapter-start-pg"/>
            <fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
                <fo:conditional-page-master-reference
blank-or-not-blank="blank"
                    master-reference="blank-pg"/>
                <fo:conditional-page-master-reference odd-or-even="even"
                    master-reference="chapter-lhpg"/>
                <fo:conditional-page-master-reference odd-or-even="odd"
                    master-reference="chapter-rhpg"/>
            </fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
        </fo:page-sequence-master>


First, you can't control margin-right on one of the pages after the first
unique one (in this case, none of the pagest except "chapter-start-pg"). You
can control margin-left, but that just causes the region body to shift to
the right, sliding content off the right side of the page.

However, if you change the margin-right on the unique first page
(chapter-start-pg), then it works... excpet that it changes it for all of
the pages in that page sequence. If you change margin-left on the unique
first page, then margin-RIGHT gets applied to the subsequent pages.

Also, the layout itself seems a bit peculiar. The left-hand edge of the
heading (in a region-begin) on the subsequent pages is lined up with the
text, but it isn't aligned with the right side of the text. For some reason,
the region-begin seems to hang over the edge of the region body. Which is
how I found the margin-right wierdness; I was trying to adjust the
margin-right so that they would match up. Obviously, it didn't work.

Is this some known screwyness with FOP? Or is this something recent?
