I thought about that, but came to the conclusion that that would sort of 
suck. Your text flow then either jumps from left to right or it suddenly 
stops left, and continues somehwat higher at the right.

Both would result in a pretty ugly make up. I don't see any reason why you 
would like to allow people to make such layout mistakes.

Cheers,
Waldo
