Isn't this the province of DSSL?

XSL seems so weak in its support for printing at present I assume that this
goal had been implicitly dropped.

What's so wrong with DSSL for complex printing? I don't see the motivation
for tools to be developed to handle anything significantly dumbed down from
DSSL and the presence of JADE means there's a strong base on which people
can develop tools like your FOP PDF.
