A few quick comments:
1) in the definition of the float and clear properties (especially for the ''left'' and ''right'' values), you should be able to use the terms ''line-left'' and ''line-right'', as defined in writing modes, to make things clearer.
2) float-defer is described in terms of "column/region/page". It probably should be defined in terms of fragmentation containers, which would also make it work using ''continue:fragments'' [1] (aka overflow:fragments, aka break-target:clone...)
3) Similarly, float-reference should probably get a value that let's you target the fragment boxes created by continue:fragments. Or a value (''any''?), that targets the closest fragmentation container ancestor you have, regardless of what kind of fragmentation container it is. Or maybe both.
