I believe you are stuck ... XSL-FO doesn't have any vertical height
force, and since you want the flow following the end of the table
that means you need to force the height of those portions of the
table that are not at the end.

Even keeps won't help you because the portions that cannot be kept
will "leave behind" room for your flow.

I think your requirement cannot be met with XSL-FO.
