[support] Possible to add block to node content?

There used to be a http://drupal.org/project/insert_block module but
it has not been upgraded to Drupal 6

I also recall a technique for creating "floater" theme regions in the
content, at least for Drupal 5 (http://drupal.org/node/29139)

But if it is only for one page, does it need to be a block? Can't it
be just formatted content?
