That
 is correct, but because the Layers dialog displays the float at the top
 of the entire layer stack there is no visual indication in the dialog 
of which layer it belongs to.  If we merely changed the display of the 
dialog so that the float is always displayed just above its source layer
 (actual functionality unaffected), this would make it more intuitive to
 the user.
