I'd rather move in the other direction: don't reflow a float again when moving it around. The only case that requires a new reflow when changing positions is a quirk that I'm somewhat skeptical we even need; unfortunately the code is designed around that quirk, making it hard to fix https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50630 , which is another reason we need to move floats after placing them. -David -- L.
