The online preview is an introduction to version 3 of the renderer, which will be released soon.
Please follow our announcements. To just try the renderer, you can use online form on our site.

Well, then it will not be a spanned block anymore.  It will be a complex
page layout with regions consisting of multiple rectangles. This behaviour
is not supported by any of the elements in XSL FO; thus an extension is required.

Extensions are the last resort to  do things; we implement them either we are really
sure that they are necessary or if we are paid for the job.
