Well at it is now you're not allowed to insert Footnotes/Marginnotes inside
Floats. But I will change this as it IS BOGUS. I could have a minipage inset
inside the float and therein the footnotes and it would work. Also I can
cut&paste another inset inside the insetfloat with insetfoot in it and it
will not check for them!

Another question to floats. Could we assume that floats are allowed ONLY in
top level paragraphs? (this means not inside a paragraph which is inside a
InsetText?) This would make it easier to be sure that we don't missuse floats!
