Since author will not know which part of the document is the first line of pages, I agree that it should be part of the behavior of "auto". That could be difficult to implement. WebKit's heuristic right now is purely based off examination of lines within a single block. It can't detect overlap across nested blocks. Detecting that you overlap other lines or that you can fit in the padding area of a single block is easy, but being willing to spill into the margin area is way more complicated (the block might be clipped, margins collapse and may be nested, a block might have a border and then you probably need to expand, etc.). dave (hyatt@apple.com)
