Well, I think I must admit defeat at this point. My conceptual
understanding of Lout is just too limited to figure out how to do this even
after hours of trying. I'm not even sure what kind of questions to ask
really...Jeff, you thought it would be a fun exercise to come up with this,
so I think this might be a good opportunity :) Otherwise, I am going to
need some more explicit guidance on how this might be done.

What I'm looking for is to be able to invoke something like:

object.tag @CanFitOnCurrentPage optional.object.tag

where if object.tag can fit on the current page it prints that, and if it
can't fit on the current page it prints the optional.object.tag (with an
empty object being the default).

Much appreciated,
Michael
