Perhaps I'm missing something in your requirements, or I'm misunderstanding your description, but another option is to create text frames in anchored frames that contain the graphics, and tag the caption paragraph with an autonumbered format that tracks the figure numbers. Numbering in text frames in anchored frames in the same text flow will track correctly with each other, and other paragraphs that use the same autonumber series (identified by a prefix letter and colon, such as S:) in the same text flow will also track correctly. Extracted figure titles in TOCs will be in the correct order.
