[Bug 12835] FIGCAPTION should be allowed to NOT be exactly first/last child of FIGURE ("The figcaption element" spec section)

In my last comment, replace:
As it now stands, the spec requires that two separate link tags be used to wrap
the image and then to wrap the content inside the image.  If the image source
changes, then that source must be updated in two different places for the same
figure which violates best practices.

As it now stands, the spec requires that two separate link tags be used, one to
wrap the image and then another to wrap the caption inside the figcaption.  If
the image source changes, then that source must be updated in two different
places for the same figure which violates best practices.

Anyway, point is that ficaption shouldn't have to be first/last child of
figure, you should be able to wrap image & figcaption in something.  Otherwise,
you have to wrap the image in something and then wrap the caption (inside the
figcaption) in the same thing.  If you try to wrap the whole figure, then you
also end up wrapping all the blank space to the sides of the image.
