It sounds like a 1-cell table with title would solve your need to float, if the Title were the trigger in your mapping table.

The problem is that I want the graphic to "float", in other words, if I add or remove text preceding the graphic I don't want to end up with a big empty space at the bottom of the page preceding the full page graphic. I'm starting to suspect that there is no way of doing this the way that I want it done, other than manually applying the master page after I have done all of the editing. So, just to clarify, a trigger pgf tag has to be inside the normal A text flow otherwise it won't work? There is no other place I could put it where it might work?
