Hi Andreas, thanks a lot for your explanation of how keep conditions are enforced!
Today I had been looking at the same code as you and I found it odd that the table keep condition is only taken into account inside TableStepper.getCombinedKnuthElementsForRowGroup() if the rowFinished value is set to false. Do you have any idea what rowFinished means in this context? When debugging the code with my test case the value of rowFinished is always true and therefore the if statement seems to be dead code. Do you think it would be a solution to just move out lines 250 and 252 of the if statement and execute it always. Perhaps then the additional keep condition handling inside TableContentLM.getKnuthElementsForRowIterator() could be removed?
