Well, I'm afraid you are out of luck then ... as I was trying to say above, 
you cannot clip the inline-progression-dimension of a line, you can only 
clip the block-progression-dimension of a block.

Make sure the XSL-FO designers know at mailto:xsl-editors at w3.org what your 
real-world requirements are so that they can contemplate future changes to 
the specification.
