\item{\joption{keeplayout}:} Do not tweak the layout.
\Cvt\ sets \jfcsmacro{raggedbottom} and redefines the value of the \jfcsmacro{textfloatsep} length.
This just follows the preferences of the original package author and is not necessary
for the package's functionality. Yet for backwards compatibility reasons, we cannot change this.
Thus, we provide the option described here to opt out this presetting.

+\item{\joption{noglossbreaks}:} If this option is set, \cvt\ will try hard to prevent page breaks within glosses.
+
+ If this option is not set, page breaks can occur between interlinearized text and free translation of a gloss, as
+ well as between gloss preamble and interlinearized text, which is usually not what you will want.
+ Nonetheless the option is not set by default. This is for backwards compatibility reasons (in order to not change
+ page breaking of existing documents). Note that page breaks might still occur in some cases even if the option is set.
