Ideally, what I would like is something like this (the
vertical position of the background text does not really
matter):

But I don't know how to tell the processor to use all the
available vertical space for the inner table.
By expressing the block-container height in the cells to be
the sum of the heights of the rows being spanned. I had to do
this in my UN layout key stylesheets: every cell had an
explicit block-progression-dimension= property.
As I said, you are limited in your heights by having to
expressly calculate what the heights are for cells.
But since you know which rows are being spanned, and
(hopefully) which heights are in those rows, it can still be
calculated.
Unfortunately I don't. Depending on the length of the text
within them, the height of the spanned rows can vary. So if I
understand correctly what you've said, it is not possible to
achieve this goal in plain XSL-FO, is it?
Anyway, thanks for your help!
