You're entitle to your opinion, obviously, but this is the way it
is always done.  A glance at virtually any document will confirm this.

No easy solution.  You could use the running headers options to
achieve it, since the first page is a Start page and subsequent
pages are non-Start pages.  Or you could use the @SetHeaderComponent
symbol from the Expert's Guide:

    @Heading { My Document }
    //
    2v @SetHeaderComponent {}
    @PP
    This text will have 2v's worth of blank space above it on
    the second and subsequent pages.

Hmm, perhaps this qualifies as an easy solution.  I haven't tested it.

I can't follow this, but I'm pretty sure that if I could the answer
would be No.
