Hi Jirka,
That's a different approach, and would probably be more flexible. When you
say "post processing step", do you mean passing the normal FO output through
a second XSLT process? That's what Ken's PSMI scheme does, right?

Cool idea, Bob. But, wouldn't it be better to just emit spans into FO
and then in the next step move blocks with span="all" higher in an
element hierarchy (I have in mind something similar to Ken's PSMI). This
will be more flexible and it can be also integrated into the stylesheets
as post-processing step using exsl:node-set().
May be this is a serious RFE for XSLT 2.0 based reimplementation of the
stylesheets.
