Yes. I've also included a test on this, #23 in the (draft) test suite:

So you're suggesting that elements with 'column-span: all' that
naturally appear outside the multicol element does not span columns?
It's not unreasonable.
It could be argued that elements with 'column-span: all' mark a
logical boundary and that they therefore should span, even when in
overflow areas. Certainly, in paged media, we want these elements to
span even when on the second page.
What do other implementors think?
