Default How do I create continuous section breaks within columns?

I have a unique request, I believe. If I have started with a two-column
layout and create a continuous section break, the section break cuts across
both columns and any text in column 1 (on left-side) that was below the
section break snakes across to column 2. Is it possible to create a
continuous section break *within* column 1 so that the snaking continues
unabated at the bottom of the page?

I'm sure the first question will be "why would you want to create a
continuous section break within a column when the whole purpose of a
continous section break is to change the columnar layout of a different
section?" (or something to that effect). The answer is that I'M not doing it,
a PROGRAM is - it generates a document from multiple sections of language,
and each section of language is wrapped in continuous section breaks. I want
these sections of langauge to continue in the traditional columnar layout
without having the section break cut across both columns.

Hope this makes sense, and someone may have a cool trick.
