I don't know about these considerations, but I got some patches from
Sebastian. I have them integrated in
http://flpsed.org/hgweb/dillo_floats/
You can look at test/dw_float_test.cc to see how it should work.
I also hooked it up to the CSS system, but real pages fail
in funny ways. The obvious limitations are:

* FloatSide only handles one float properly.
* Rendereing and redrawing has obvious issues.
* Clicks are not forwarded properly to floats.
