Description
Description
Some typst code:
#lorem(150)
#footnote(lorem(10))
#lorem(150)
#footnote(lorem(10))
#lorem(150)
#footnote(lorem(10))
#lorem(150)
#footnote(lorem(10))
#lorem(150)
#footnote(lorem(10))
The last line of the fourth paragraph ends up on the second page. This appears to happen because it has a footnote which doesn't fit causing the line to be forced to the next page creating an ugly widow.

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by running the supplied Typst reproduction and tracing the pagination and footnote layout behavior; done means the fourth paragraph no longer produces the reported widow while its footnote still lays out correctly, with a regression test for the case.
