We played all of these "kludge" games and gave up on them. Our users with trackballs did like the single page layout, either. Ultimately, we changed our Style Guide to put captions at the top of our figures (and tables). No one has complained since we made that shift. Honestly, I think it makes more sense to have the captions at the top of the figure anyway, from a "linear read" perspective.
