When placing several pieces in a book, we like each page to be  
flush-bottom, except when a piece ends before a page break.

One current solution is to begin with all the \scores, the pieces, in one  
\bookpart and let LilyPond choose page breaks.  Then whenever we would  
prefer a piece to start on a new page, we close the previous \bookpart and  
start a new one, with a bookTitleMarkup="" to avoid re-printing the overall  
title of the set of pieces.

We could do this more simply if we could \vfill\pageBreak
