Thea,
What he said.... another page sequence with another page master is the easy solution, if it gives you output you can live with. The page model in XSL-FO is where you can really see the stress between layout requirements (which can be extremely complex) and the need for a complete specification up front in order to support "lights-out" processing (i.e. that requires no user intervention in a final tweak phase). This is why there's probably a market for an interactive FO post-processor, that is, an editing package that allows you to display the results of FO processing and tweak them on an ad hoc basis. Problematic for content management, if abused (in the old days editors would sometimes keep tweaking content well into production, but if you're "single-sourcing" to multiple outputs this is Bad), but enough of a requirement that people want to do it anyway....
