Page break at headers

I discussed this some with Warren off-list, and for him setting "page
break before row" on the level 1 style as-is allows him to accomplish
the main goal of minimizing page breaks during scenes. However, where
multiple successive scenes would fit on the same printed page, he
(understandably) doesn't want page breaks between those scenes. Right
now he has to manually manage page breaks in order to accomplish that
latter goal.
So in effect, what Warren wants is a style option for "page break
before row IFF the row (and it's children) don't completely fit on
the current page."
This should be easier for us than what I initially thought he would
want, which is "page break before row IFF the row (and it's children)
don't completely fit on the current page AND the row (and it's
children) will completely fit on a new page."
I can't promise anything specific on any specific schedule (other
than to say that the currently development schedule makes it unlikely
for any such changes to show up in the near future), but I would be
interested in any feedback from the community as to how helpful
people would find the feature as Warren needs it ("page break before
row if and only if it and its children don't completely fit on what
remains of the current page"), or if people need more flexibility (or
something else entirely).
