This is a common problem with XSL FO 1.0, met in other areas
as well. Table header "Table 1.4, continued" if the table
is continued from a previous page, a mark at the beginning
of a block (as in newspapers "see page 1"). XSL 1.1 is going
to add functionality some of the cases, but not in general
way.

Since one realizes it now that breaking a flow object (at
line or page boundary) is an event which often requires
special actions (presentation entities to be inserted),
submitting elaborated use cases to  
could help at this early stage of XSL 1.1.
