Page layout has been in development since March. Check-out the development branch, there are packages for several platforms. It's not been heavily used, so expect to find bugs. > It would be great if I do something like this \fit-pages 4 I have thought about this, but I'm not sure that it is very useful.

Interesting. I wonder what happens when you stress that feature. This is another thing that we have been thinking about. With the current page breaking algorithm, you should be able to do that by hand, adding positive or negative stimulations for page breaks. Before we choose to automate such a feature, we would like to have some good feel for when and where to put how big penalties. If you are interested, you can help shed some light on this.
