Have a look at this:
http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/project/notable2.5.php#jump_4
Note that it is possible for an onCreate event to be fired and the
report item to show up on the next page. The onPageBreak should fire
when it is placed on the page. For an example usage look at the
attached report that uses it to set a couple of page variables.

I agree. Do you mind opening a bugzilla for this?
