So like this:
\long\def\startpleasekeepmetogether#1\stoppleasekeepmetogether
    {\hereshouldprobablybesomepenaltyfixtoallowcolumnbreak
     \bgroup\interlinepenalty=10000#1\egroup}
?

ConTeXt has something better to offer, but colums seem a bit
problematic anyway.

It needs to be done locally anyway. I just need to keep some portions together.
