Actually, now that I think about it, there could be quite a few tests
that can't handle something like this. Many things with floats or absolute
positioning, for example, since those elements are out-of-flow -- the
End of Test marker would be on the first page instead of the last!

Does CSS3 Paged Media introduce a counter for the total number of pages?
IIRC an earlier draft of *something* had one. We could use that. Otherwise
I think manually adding a sentence on the page-breaking tests indicating
the number of expected pages would be the way to go. (I don't think we
can or should do that for every test, just the page-breaking ones.)
