    <thetext>Reported by Anton Prowse

9.4.1 says:

   # In a block formatting context, each box&apos;s left outer edge touches
   # the left edge of the containing block (for right-to-left
   # formatting, right edges touch).

s/box&apos;s/in-flow box&apos;s/
since floats participate in a block formatting context and yet they don&apos;t always touch the edges of their containing block.  [Whether abspos elements participate is less clear.]
