This follows up on just a side aspect in this thread that is (partly)
separate from its subject.


Just to wrap the thread up in my words:

1. Cross-backend (or more cross-backend) support of \newpage built into
   Org directly was disapproved in favor of a less portable filter based
   solution [fn:1].

2. Introducing invisible chars (as syntax for a possible implementation
   of such cross backend \newpage) in Org syntax was generally
   disapproved.

Regards,
Andreas
