From my recent experiments, using absolutely positioned block-containers,

I don't think so. Have a look at the code in
..../fo/flow/ExternalGraphic.java
Unfortunately the height and width attributes are to specify the size of
the external-graphic area
which the image is allowed to exceed
Not in the FOP implementation. It may overflow the parent area though.
- which is where content-height and
content-width come into play?
I always thought the use case for the content-width|height properties
is for specifying percentages, e.g. content-width="50%" will scale
a 4cm wide image down to a 2 cm wide. This is still tricky for bitmap
images without an embedded resolution.
