@Hans: Does it make sense to disable \incrementcounter if

I was going to suggest such things...

My motivation is different. If you have any macro in a table (or anything that requires multiple runs to get the size right) that uses a counter (e.g., enumeration), then the numbers will be off. That would not happen if a counter is frozen when trialtypesetting is on.

P.S. Would not the use of \startcombination\stopcombination be an
alternative to the placefigures within a table?

combinations only give regular grid. Sometimes you want an irregular grid. For example, the OP wanted

+------+------+
|      |      |
|      | Fig2 |
| Fig1 +------+
|      | Fig3 |
|      |      |
+------+------+

Such layouts are not possible using combinations.
