Not a CSS guru, but in reading your post it seems you haven't really stated a CSS problem, much less a Blueprint one. What you're experiencing is the direct result of your own design choices.
You have a container that you have configured to be dynamically resized. If you don't want the objects following it to jump around, then as you pointed out one choice would be to fix the size of the container. Another one would be to make that container the last one in your design, or at least the last one with relative positioning. I've seen footers that are fixed to the bottom of the viewport - maybe through absolute positioning?
