I tried `\blank` commands in `before`, but it
seems to have to effect. A space before
`\blank` (like `before={\ \blank[5em]}`)
makes it work, but is not so nice.
TeX ignores a \blank at the begin of a page, to
force the space you can
“before=\blank[force,<value>]”.
...
But using `toffset` and `boffset` does the
job, even without `\blank`s:
This is wrong because the toffset and buffet
control the margins *in* the boy and not around
the box.

If the before option is just for space then how
do I place a fleuron centered above the chapter
title? That is what the customer wants.
before={\page\fleuron\blank}

or so, assuming \fleuron exists

or otherwise a command hooked into the title renderer
