IFParser is also still missing the parse code for the structure tree. I
guess I would defer the call to startPageSequence in the IFParser, then
parse the reduced FO tree using a ContentHandler delegate, set that on
the user agent and then call

Ah, I see. Essentially, you're stuck in the case where the IF is loaded
from XML in which case the user agent hasn't received the structure tree,
yet. So, to visualize this:
Direct Rendering:
- Reduced FO tree is built using XSLT and set on the user agent
- DocumentHandler.startPageSequence is
To those PDF specialists around here: am I right that the structure tree
could as well be converted into PDF at the end of a page sequence, as at
the beginning?
In other words: could the piece of code dealing with the structure tree
be moved from PDFDocumentHandler.startPageSequence to
