Apologies for the long delay The first idea was as described by you in the first point. Nevertheless, I agree with you that this workflow is not suitable for WYSIWYG. Figures should not jump around in "undefined" manner when user types. The main idea was to optimize figure placement (see Latex) but it is hard to achieve it interactively. Maybe better approach would be to implement a new command (plugin): "Optimize figures placements", which optimizes figures placements in relation to some parameters (e.g. allowed positions of figures).
