Oh perhaps it does. It seems i was trying to figure this out the 
wrong way around with false assumptions on what the block formatting 
contexts meant.

Since floats are covered, items with non-initial overflow does not 
need any explanation, table-cells are covered (by UA specific...) i 
suppose the only issue might be inline-block:s. That is a very minor 
issue if it isen't covered already by virtue of being shrink-wrapped, 
eg cell-like.

The adjacent bit was a part of my confused idea of what a block 
formatting context was, and made me think they should always be 
cleared rather than pseudo-floated.

Thanks for filling me in,
