   <figure id='pg.struct'>
	<title>Pagination Formatting Objects</title>
   <mediaobject >
       <imageobject>
	<imagedata fileref="images/fig5-8a.png" format="PNG"/>
       </imageobject>
       <textobject>
	<phrase>Pagination Formatting Objects</phrase>
       </textobject>

     </mediaobject></figure>


I always think they look prettier in a figure :-)

Phrase in textobject produces alt text,
Other content in textobject can produce a D link.

A page break is styling, it's not markup.
You need to look at the XSLT stylesheets to figure that one out.
 From memory (Bobs book is about definitive today) you can't
get it from customizing the stylesheets,
you'd need to add
<fo:block break-before='page'/> to the template for a section
if you want to tweak the stylesheets to get this.
