No because the last page changes depending on the lenght of text that precedes. > 2.

That works well only if the text ou are using is final and will not be modified again, so I guess theis would be a last resort kind of thing. It doesn't look like it can be done otherwise (for example, the way tables can break naturally and repeat the header on the next page; I don't have to put a break anywhere for that).
