Am working against the clock with a book that is undergoing last-minute design 
changes on press day, so I have to use up two question tokens today...

I am forced to mix 1-column and 2-column layouts. I cannot use tables, as the 
existing 1-c material that must go into 2-c already contains tables. 

As we know from previous discussions here, the column layout is a flow property 
rather than a page property, so I must use a B flow for the 2-c material.

My question is, is there any way of preventing numbering streams from 
restarting when the flow changes within a document? I'm a bit surprised to see 
that FrameMaker views numbering streams as local to flows rather than global to 
a document, but this is the case: if numbering is set at book level to restart 
per-document, it also seems to restart for a new flow within that document.

The workaround is to force the numbering at para tag level, but this is against 
my principles ;-)
