Hi,

There is a quite old FOP branch that aims to implement fo:float (see [1])
IIRC, it was based on FOP-1196 patch (see [2]).

This issue is still open, but there is no plan to merge it to trunk.

[1] https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/fop/branches/Temp_Floats
[2] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-1196
