The merging algorithm generates a correct sequence of Knuth elements only for the first break. If a row group is broken accross more than 2 pages the resulting layout may be wrong. Also, in the collapsing border model the normal before borders are always selected for the first row of a row group. The case where the row group starts a new page isn't handled and may lead to wrong output (content overflowing the region-body) in some cases. Details on the following wiki page: http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/TableLayout/KnownProblems Creating a bug entry for this so that it can be referenced in commit messages and other bug reports.
