Thanks for the hint.

I will do next time :) This time, I found the issue. It was a
configuration issue: procedure.properties used formal.object.properties,
which used keep-together.within-column=always and trying to change this
via dbfo did not work. I now simply changed the
keep-together.within-column to auto globally for processing this
article. Maybe the dbfo-variant of defining the
keep-together.within-column value should probably work by default for
more elements.
