I have commited a patch which is even cooler. Remember the documentation
uses by default CSS? Well, now the last sentence on those pages is
enclosed in a special div. By default the div will do nothing. However,
if you go to the generated allegro.css and uncomment one of the lines at
the end of the file, you will get about one page of blank space at the
end of each section.

This will prevent aj to complain about documentation which breaks flows.

Note to self: explain all of this in a new manual section.
