Yes, there are a few interesting things in there. This ticket https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590491 and also your text cases [1]. Showing a painting difference for outline and border (besides the float issue). For the float there is no surprise in IE 6/7 in which body always has a layout and behave more or less like a BFC (enclosing floats).
