I'm not quite sure what you are aiming for here, but you can certainly
do that last bit right now, for example:

  @DP 10c @High {
  @CentredDisplay { ... }
  }
  @DP

includes a galley (the content of the display) targeted to something of
fixed height.  If it turns out that the galley does not fit in the height
available, the remainder will be split off and will go looking for some
other place to attach to.  Since there is no such place it will be lost.
