After finishing another duties I am back ... and still facing these issues.

I think both cases could be eliminated by establishing a new constraint to
the 'key letter':
(1) There must be 0 or at least 3 lines at the beginning of the 
    page/column before the Key letter.
(2) There must be at least 2 lines after the Key letter.

Can this be somehow set in my source file? 

Thanks, Jan
