Page-position="last" supported?

   Guys, we're trying to change the footer on the last page of the PDF doc we are creating. Nothing seems to help.
I see where you don't support page-position="last". Is this coming soon or should we keep looking for a work-around?
Do you have a work-around?
Here's our attempt to use it:

<fo:page-sequence-master master-name ="Ballot-Sections">
        <fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
               master-reference ="xsl-even-pages"   
            odd-or-even="even"/>  
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
               master-reference ="xsl-odd-pages"
               odd-or-even="odd"/>   
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference
               master-reference ="xsl-last-page"
               page-position="last"/>   
       </fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives> 
 </fo:page-sequence-master> 
It never uses the xsl-last-page formats.

	Hello, The way this works is that the last page has to be generated using a blank page. In the example below the last page will be pink: <fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:xf="http://www.ecrion.com/xf/1.0"> <fo:layout-master-set> <fo:simple-page-master master-name="Letter Page" page-width="8.5in" page-height="11in"> <fo:region-body region-name="xsl-region-body" margin="0.7in"/> <fo:region-before region-name="xsl-region-before" display-align="after" extent="0.7in"/> <fo:region-after region-name="xsl-region-after" display-align="before" extent="0.7in"/> <fo:region-start region-name="xsl-region-start" extent="0.7in"/> <fo:region-end region-name="xsl-region-end" extent="0.7in"/> </fo:simple-page-master> <fo:simple-page-master master-name="LastPageLayout" page-width="8.5in" page-height="11in"> <fo:region-body region-name="xsl-region-body" margin="0.7in" background="pink"/> <fo:region-before region-name="xsl-region-before" display-align="after" extent="0.7in"/> <fo:region-after region-name="xsl-region-after" display-align="before" extent="0.7in"/> <fo:region-start region-name="xsl-region-start" extent="0.7in"/> <fo:region-end region-name="xsl-region-end" extent="0.7in"/> </fo:simple-page-master> <fo:page-sequence-master master-name="ComplexMaster1"> <fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives maximum-repeats="no-limit"> <fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-reference="LastPageLayout" page-position="last"/> <fo:conditional-page-master-reference master-reference="Letter Page"/> </fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives> </fo:page-sequence-master> </fo:layout-master-set> <fo:page-sequence master-reference="ComplexMaster1" force-page-count="end-on-even"> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-before" font-size="12pt" font-family="Times"> <fo:block> </fo:block> </fo:static-content> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-after" font-size="12pt" font-family="Times"> <fo:block> </fo:block> </fo:static-content> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-start" font-size="12pt" font-family="Times"> <fo:block> </fo:block> </fo:static-content> <fo:static-content flow-name="xsl-region-end" font-size="12pt" font-family="Times"> <fo:block> </fo:block> </fo:static-content> <fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body" font-family="Times" font-size="12pt"> <fo:block> </fo:block> </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> </fo:root>

	So the solution is to print one more (additional) page than the actual end of the document you are creating? That doesn't seem to match the example in Dave Pawson's book (pages 54-59) on page sequences: http://tinyurl.com/ydm4lgj Am I understanding his example wrong? I just want to change the footer on the last printed page.
