I should note here that I'm taking "[float] to the left/right of [a float]" in the float rules to mean "their margin boxes overlap vertically", and that we're using the same criterion that we chose for a line box being "next to" a float, such that a negative-height float isn't considered "to the left/right of" any other float. I believe that the phrase "to the left/right" of in the current publicly-visible text isn't clear enough, and needs to be changed. Similarly, "top"/"bottom" need to be clarified, presumably to "outer top" / "outer bottom". pjrm.
