Hi Tanya,

There is no direct way, although you could identify the first and last
lines of the first and last columns on the page, then find the
corresponding paragraphs (fp_BlockLayout's) that own the lines.

It's problem because for abiword pages are really owned by
fl_DocSectionLayout and we have not implemented styles for them. I
guess we should and then it would be much easier to implement
page-level styles.

We should do the ground work to allow us to implement Section-level
styles so we can eventually do these properly but I can see the point
of attempting a work-around to make page-level styles sort-of work. My
feeling is though that it might introduce weirder bugs than if we just
ignored them.

Cheers

Martin
