Unfortunately, this adds extra redundant space at the bottom of the column. The problem is especially evident when the columns are in a block with a margin, such with the hymn lyrics on our site (for examples of our lyrics pages, click one of the links on http://www.hymntime.com/tch/ttl/ttl-a.htm).

+1 from me as the current behavior can cause very ugly looking layouts.
