You are absolutely wrong. Nothing in my "scheme" loses the "Floating" 
function. Specifying At insertion point as the anchoring position denies 
you the option to turn off floating, because the insertion point itself 
automatically floats.

The description of my method did include a better way to force paragraph 
breaks,  but such breaks are not made because the anchored frames don't 
float, they're made, for instance, to keep the graphic on the same page as 
the text which describes it.
