I certainly don't fully understand your system and requirements, but it
seems to me that the best solution would be to have the Function element
generate an fo:block element *around* its children. You could then put
a keep-together.within-column="always" property and the ID on that
fo:block. As long as you don't put any extra space-before or
space-after properties on the block created by the Function, that block
shouldn't create any extra space.
