    'text-alignment' is inherited, actually. Your stylesheet contains an
    explicit
    text-align="end" in the template for the attribution, doesn't it? I don't
    see
    any point where it breaks inheritance.

    As for the 'width', it is 1) never inherited, 2) should not be used on
    fo:block
    elements: block dimensions shall be controlled by start/end indents.
    (There is no @width listed in the properties of a fo:block element
    in the XSL spec). Use fo:block-container to constrain the width
    of a rectangular area.
