I think the float's containing block is actually used for layout calculations in some ways.
See my reply to roc. Are you talking about the CSS containing block here, or the parent frame in our frame tree? I realize they match right now; but in the future we _could_ have the latter be the block-of-inlines while the former is the block-of-blocks...
I wonder if it might be better for the float containing block to always be the block of inlines (which I think would happen automatically if we did the split)
Without changes to blockframe or reflow, yes. Would need some frame constructor surgery on dynamic changes (or adding more WipeContainingBlock ickiness). This would make us match Webkit's behavior, but not our own right now or Opera or IE8 (if we're talking about the CSS containing block).
