I don't like it in some cases. An example: An ebook that's a collection of several other books has, for each of them a title page, and after the title page a dedication. I want the dedication for each book to be in another page, but not flushed to the top, I want a generous top margin above the dedication, that means I cannot use "page-break-before: always" in a div.dedication class. I could, since I'm talking about ePUB, have a file for the title page and a separate file for the dedication, but I don't like so many files either
As for the spec, it's
here (for CSS2.1). Last time I saw it (because someone told me, I think it was Peter Sorotkin?) I don't remeber it saying that the margin-top could be retained after a forced pagebreak, or the CSS3 "preview" (though the
current draft doesn't say anything), but maybe I read another version. Anyway, it seems ADE sets margin-top to 0 after a forced pagebreak, which is what I don't like.
