So why then does this happen, in a CSS world where all columns are set to "auto"?
At least I expect that the reason can be explained professionally. Then I would consider accepting that we have to fix it manually. What I do not really accept is an explanation that tells me: it is all by design of CSS and we must take care of this "manually" forever ... because this contradicts the goals of the MadCap Flare strategy.
