Different footer heights per page

[lifeisfoo]

I've a document with different headers and footers for every page, generally the first header and the last footer are bigger that the others.

I've used a function for the header and the footer properties in order to have different content per page, but seems that their height is statically defined in the object pageMargins.

Is it possible to create a pdf with fluid header and footer height using pdfmake?

Looking at the source code seems that with a small tweak, this could be possible:

Change the LayoutBuilder.prototype.addDynamicRepeatable function in this way:

if (node) {
     var currentMargins = this.pageMargins.slice();
     if (node.height) {
          currentMargins[3] = node.height;       
     }
      var sizes = sizeFunction(this.writer.context().getCurrentPage().pageSize, currentMargins);
      //...
    }

Then, create the document object:

var myDoc = {
    footer: footer: function(currentPage, pageCount) {
        if(currentPage == pageCount) {
            return {
                text: "Last page\nWith nice ending text :)",
                alignment: 'center',
                height: 100
            }
      } else {
        return currentPage.toString() + ' of ' + pageCount; 
      }
    },
//...
}

Am I right?
