(If the answers to my question are in some doc somewhere, please tell me where it is!) Consider the file below. I expected to see a hairline above the second itemization, and indeed I do. But if I remove the "columns" specifier, the hairline does not appear. Is this the correct behavior, or a bug? Also: what does the keyword "beforehead" do? If I replace "before" with "beforehead" in the example, I get nothing. Is it in the docs somewhere? In the lists of keywords for many commands there are parameters listed that I can't figure out. Some of them seem to do nothing, but I always wonder if they only operate in conjunction with some other feature, or I haven't implemented them correctly. Some of them do something, but I can't figure out what the rule is. Is there a doc somewhere describing the keywords? Is it in the manual and I've missed it?
