[css3-multicol] §8.1 Overflow inside multicol element and example 32

Hello,

8.1. Overflow inside multicol elements
http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-multicol/#overflow-inside-multicol-elements

"
(...)
in-flow content that extends into column gaps or neighboring columns — 
e.g., long words or images — is not clipped
(...)
"

The problem I see is with example 32. What the example does not show, 
does not demonstrate is that content (line boxes) in central column 
actually **_paints over_** that black image. Since content is processed 
in document order, this causes line boxes in the central column to be 
painted over such overflow-into-central-column of black opaque image.

If example 32 would use another color (I suggest orange for best 
contrast) instead of black for the large image, then it would and should 
show this.
