A method - no, not really. We're not yet certain the "justify-by-modifying"
approach will fly for everything we want, but, there's an implementaiton,
which counts for a lot.

I don't think it can be entirely post-pagination, because of
things like column balancing and regions that can grow and
move, but we haven't written those up in the draft yet.

Thanks for looking, and taking the time to comment!
Good luck, too, with the medical text.
