Thak you, Taco. Yes, this is almost exactly what I wanted to do,
except that I would substitute
    \ifdim\ht0<\textheight
with
    \ifdim\ht0<\theremainingpageheight

How/where can I get \theremainingpageheight? I saw some strange
"keywords" like \pagegoal, \pagetotal spread through the source, ...
but I have no clue what they are for and if they have anyting to do
with what I'm looking for.

Thans a lot,
    Mojca
