This is not an HTML issue, but rather a CSS one.  And luckily, this
issue is already addressed:
<http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-page/#populating-margin-boxes>

I don't *think* this has been implemented in browsers yet, but it has
been in several HTML+CSS-based printing programs, like PrinceXML or
WeasyPrint.
