xsl fo center
This would not exactly center the word "Centre". It would be a reasonable
expectation that it would generate equal-length inline-rules.
Three samples:
.................................................
.                                               .
.L                      C                      R.
.                                               .
.L           C           Bunch of stuff on right.
.                                               .
.Bunch of stuff on left side        C          R.
.                                               .
.................................................


The desired result can be created using position="absolute" or using a table.
(There may be other ways.)
