I would set offset parameters for all four margins before rule values but will us Hans ever grant this wish, it's been on the list from a lot of us for years.
indeed, but only because it has a speed penalty; maybe some day in mkiv only

If you won't change the MkII version I can live with this but what speaks against a modification of the MkIV version. Don't say performance, MkIV is in many parts slower than MkII (e.g. buffers) but people who use don't care about this.
And here are the times for MkIV. Original core-rul: mkiv lua stats : runtime - 20.242 seconds, 1250 processed pages, 1250 shipped pages, 61.753 pages/second Modified core-rul: mkiv lua stats : runtime - 22.108 seconds, 1250 processed pages, 1250 shipped pages, 56.541 pages/second Wolfgang
