A patch is uploaded to implement this feature. Review and comments are 
welcomed. Thanks.

The contents include:

1. New class of PageLayoutProperties.java . 
  /**
 * This class represents the page layout style settings. It provides methods to
 * access borders, margins,number format, page width, page height and etc. More
 * functions will be added latter.
 * 
 * <p>
 * This class is a corresponded high level class for element
 * "style:page-layout-properties". It provides methods to access the attributes
 * and children of "style:page-layout-properties".
 * 
 * @since 0.8
 */

2. New class of MasterPage. java. 
  /**
 * This class represents the master page style settings. It provides methods to
 * access page layout styles. More functions will be added latter.
 * 
 * <p>
 * This class is a corresponding high level class for element
 * "style:master-page". It provides methods to access the attributes and
 * children of "style:master-page".
 * 
 * @since 0.8
 */

3. New API in TextDocument.java.
/**
         * Appends a new page break to this document after the reference 
paragraph,
         * and the master page style will be applied to the new page.
         * 
         * @param refParagraph
         *            the reference paragraph after where the page break 
inserted.
         * @param master
         *            the master page style applied to the new page.
         * @since 0.8
         */

        public void addPageBreak(Paragraph refParagraph, MasterPage master) 

4. New test cases in TextDocumentTest.java and PageLayoutPropertiesTest.java.

> I'd like to propose a new API which would allow customers to set the page 
> style when inserting a page break. It's a common scenario to change page 
> style when adding page break, like from "Portrait" to "Landscape" or vice 
> versa. 
> In ODF specs, page style is defined through style:master-page, which specify 
> the page formatting properties through style:page-layout-name. In text 
> document, a master page can be assigned to paragraph style using a 
> style:master-page-name attribute. Each time the paragraph style is applied to 
> text, a page break is inserted before the paragraph. A page that starts at 
> the page break would use the specified master page. 
> Need provide APIs to do 2 things:
> (1) Define a new master page or get an existing master page. 
> -  New class MasterPage, which would provide get/set methods for page layout 
> properties, like page width, page height, print orientation, margin and so on.
> (2) Assign the master page to an appointed paragraph to add page break before 
> it.
>  -  TextDocument.addPageBreak(Paragraph refParagraph, MasterPage masterPage)
