In this interesting discussion about master page strategies, it's worth remembering that FrameMaker gives you the tools to apply master pages automatically in both a structured and unstructured environments: the UnstructMasterPageMaps and StructMasterPageMaps tables on the reference pages.

These only appear (FrameMaker creates them for you) when you use the Apply Master Pages... command. They allow you to trigger the application of specific master page based on named paragraph tags on the respective body pages. To those of you who know this, it's old hat, but I'm posting this for anyone who's not aware of this feature. It can save a load of time and increase layout security.
