I understand.  Currently, the first header, the second header, and the data
following the third header are all specified (I think) to begin on a new
page.  My thought it that some convenience and simplicity would be gained,
with little cost, be also requiring that the third header begin on a new page.

I agree.  Ultimately there has to be a spec, though (unless you're
Microsoft ;-).
