how to force a fo:block to the bottom of the page?

Hi all,

I'm searching for a way to force the last block of a sequence to the bottom
of the region-body, no matter where the previous block ends. Didn't come up
with anything working yet - any ideas?

Best regards,
Johann

Use a footnote:
   <fo:block>previous block</bo:block>
   <fo:block><fo:footnote><fo:inline/><fo:footnote-body>
     <fo:block>last block</fo:block></fo:footnote-body>
   </fo:block>

You'll get null pointer exceptions if the footnoted block wont fit
on the page though.
