AW: [xep-support] Marginalia and corresponding text get out of sync (again)

Hallo Ludger,
2 weeks ago i had the same problem with marginalia and page-breaks.
You can not use keep-with-next attributes on fo:float (http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/slice6.html#fo_float).

My solution is to put a fo:block around the content and the corresponding marginalia:

<fo:block keep-together="always" clear="both">
<fo:float float="both"
keep-with-next.within-page="always">
        <fo:block-container
                <fo:block>
                        <fo:block
                                <fo:external-graphic
                        </fo:block>
                </fo:block>
        </fo:block-container>
</fo:float>
<fo:block>
        ... corresonding text ...
<fo:block>
</fo:block>

Sorry for dwelling upon this subject. But it is important for me. I´m a little bit confused as I didn't get any resond neither from the list nor from XEP support.
Was the problem described in a appropriate way? Is it replicable for you? I could provide more code.
Is the problem still unsolved and might be fixed by a clever algorithm in XEP 5? Even that answer would help me.

I wonder if anybody ever run into the same problem. Double-sided documents with marginalia are not that unusal, are they?

Subject: [xep-support] Marginalia and corresponding text get out of sync (again)

Dear all,
I'm working on generating doubled-sided documents with marginalia (e.g.
admon graphics) using the DocBook XSL Stylesheets. In general this works fine, but the marginalia and the corresponding text sometimes are on different pages. This happens only at the bottom of a page when the text is the last paragraph. Then XEP puts a page break between the marginalia and the corresponding paragraph.

Is there a solution to keep both together?
I tried keep-with-next.within-page and ...-page and so on on the fo:float element with my XEP processor (4.5 build 20060313) but nothing worked. Any hints?

The structure of the fo is:

<fo:float float="outside" clear="both"
keep-with-next.within-page="always">
        <fo:block-container
                <fo:block>
                        <fo:block
                                <fo:external-graphic
                        </fo:block>
                </fo:block>
        </fo:block-container>
</fo:float>
<fo:block>
        ... corresonding text ...
<fo:block>

Thanks and best wishes.
Ludger Thomas
