And the second float has the clear property set so that it will be placed on page two (and not page one), then also float three (which doesn't have the clear property set) will be placed on page 2 (or later if there is not enough space on page 2). Float three will therefore not be placed on page one, even though there would be enough space for it there. We will make sure that the wording ensures that. This is also what inline floats do, so pagefloats are no exceptions. Wouldn't it be all subsequent content that would go to the next page? 'Clear: left' causes all subsequent content to clear the left float. Would 'clear: top' set on a non-float also cause it to move to the top of the next page? Clear:left can be set on any element, not just those with float:left. Is this the same as break-before:always?
