Yes, this process is exactly where regions have originated. In print layout pages are partitioned into the regions (or frames) and then the content is poured into the regions. This is how magazine-like layouts are most commonly created. In fact you are as likely to see different styling for an article in the first region of the article (e.g. a small opening section across multiple columns with bigger text and bright color) as on the first page, so a region is a better point to apply special styling than a page.
