Overlay caption placement

Overlay caption placement

[Dave]

Hi all,

I have a few pdf figures that I'm including in a large report that are
essentially full page (portrait) diagrams.  However, they each have
blank space in the lower right corner and I was thinking that it would
be nice to put the caption in this spot.  Is there a way to overlay a
caption on top of a floating figure?  Ideally, I'd like to be able to
provide an x,y offset location for these captions in cm.  Is there
something I'm missing in setupcaption?

Cheers,
Dave

see details.pdf for more fancy captions; technically you can call up the 
real captions too (undocumented of course)

at some point i want to reimplement (or provide an additional) figure 
composition mechsnism
