I need to express this in FO: No, especially if you want to have the page number centered. There's a lot of code for something that appears to be simple.
The point is: XSLFO provides basic blocks for describing a 2D layout. Most stuff embodying higher level concepts are stripped away and mapped onto combinations of more basic blocks. Effectivity in the sense of "number of elements to describe a certain layout" was not a concern. From this point of view, fo:table is a bit misdesigned, because it has headers and footers to make the description of some real "high level" tables easy but is also the only way to describe a more general "grid" layout block, which you just encountered.
