Am I missing something, or is there a bug that's resulting in images being
misplaced?
This would be easier to answer if you explained what the unexpected
behavior is :)
If you are referring to the vertical positioning of the image, it is pushed
down by the previous (right-floated) image which in turn is being pushed
down by the infobox. CSS 2.1 9.5.1
<http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#float-position> has the exact
(rather complex) ruleset for positioning floats, the relevant part here is
that a float can never be higher than any preceding float, even if they are
floated in different directions.
