I think that LaTeX usually does that: it will put a pagebreak before a
section if there is no room for 2 lines, but I don't know how to increase the
value 2.
However, in some document classes, the sections command are poorly defined,
and the the section heading can appear on one page while the paragraph
begins at the next page.

LaTeX does have widows/orphans control (from the LyX FAQ):
To eliminate widows and orphans (first line from a paragraph at the bottom
of the page and the last line from a paragraph at the top of the page), add
the following to the LaTeX preamble:
\widowpenalty=10000
\clubpenalty=10000
but I don't think it will help with the problem above.
