I'd appreciate feedback on the technique, and to know if anyone has any trouble with it in any browser.

No problems with fixed width on container.

I would use something like:
.sidenote {
  position: absolute;
  right: -220px;
  width: 200px;
}
...and add something like 'margin-right: 240px' to a container with
'width: auto;' or 'width: (some value);', as a more universal
positioning-method that'll work well in both fluid and fixed-width designs.
A fluid copy of your log-page came out just fine that way - even in
IE/win when I made sure it got its 'hasLayout' flag up on container.
I also had to fix IE's 'extreme font-step bug' in that page, but that's
not relevant here.
