Ah, now I'm starting to see where this is going. I think this something
extremely difficult to do. To a certain degree it sounds like my

Hello fopsters,
so I have finished (and published in bugzilla) the patch which have aroused
quite a discussion around here.

much of layout used to be in 0.20.5.) I'm not sure if
Fop can realistically handle both at this time.
As for complexity, in our LM's, with Ty
Hello Fopsters,
I have attached first phase (a working example) of the refactoring I was
