Your last example seems easy enough, as it is simply a matter of
clearing the float below the static "even longer page title".

Provide a page with the relevant elements and basic styling, and we'll
demonstrate a few options for you. (I'm to lazy/busy/whatever to create
demos today :-) )

You may see more responsive floating-methods one day - maybe in CSS4,
but for now you'll have to rely on absolute positioning or simple
float-clearing.

There are a few "push the float down" methods available - google around,
but most, if not all, of them have severe limitations.
