Proper positioning of dita topics on output

Hi,
I'm using Frame 10 to create dita files, and have noticed that there is a
delta between the positioning of topics in the topic file, versus on the
composite fm after having converted the ditamap.

Having worked in structured Framemaker previously, I'm familiar with a
creating a topic title style that would set the topic title to the top of
the next page (i.e., "title.0_top") if necessary. However, it seems this
would not be of use in dita, where the topic positioning can always float
around, depending on the content preceding it.

Is there some way to tell Frame that, when there is a topic title
approaching the bottom of a page, and perhaps only one or two lines of
following content makes it to the page before the remainder of the topic
flows to the next page, to instead force that topic to start at the top of
the following page?
