OK, so it's clear from the minutes[1] of the F2F that it wasn't intentional to allow left floats to the right of right floats. However, it's not defined what "next to a float" means so that aspect of the resolution needs addressing (possibly postponing to errata). cf. Issue 185, modified by Issue 279, which resulted in a definition of what it means for a line box to be next to a float.
