There are at least two ways in which this might be interesting. One of the is that of having "floating" tables that span multiple pages. The other, more general, is that of having (usually textual) floating contents split in different blocks located in different parts of the text. An example of usage of this could be a text block that "flows" from a floating frame to another (IOW a set of linked floating frames containing a single textflow) Are there any chances of having this feature in ConTeXt? -- Giuseppe "Oblomov" Bilotta
