I'd never have guessed that all that stuff was there based on the title "Generated Content for Paged Media". Thanks for the reference. css3-multicol: I suggest referring readers to css3-gcpm from css3-multicol, e.g. in section 7 ‘Spanning columns’. css3-gcpm is already listed as a dependency of css3-multicol, but isn't mentioned anywhere within the main text. css3-gcpm: (I'd also be inclined to change the name of css3-gcpm so that people looking for spanning or footnote or sidenote floats or hyphenation etc. are more likely to find the right CSS module; though I suppose it's too late for that now, and I haven't actually thought about a better name. I don't suppose we could move some of these to different modules, like hyphenation to css3-text (which already has §4.2 ‘Hyphenation’ with a pointer to css3-gcpm), and §14 ‘Advanced multi-column layout’ to css3-multicol ? Excuse the naïveté of such suggestions.) pjrm.
