There's a note about before floats:

  http://www.renderx.com/Tests/doc/html/spec.html#d1e615

"Top-floats (float="before") area is drawn on top of the following page."

I came across the wording in the spec earlier when working with
side-floats, and I'm still not sure exactly what they mean with before
floats. Don't know if I have ever seen one. :-)

6.10.1.1: "The fo:float formatting object is used for two distinct
purposes. First, so that during the normal placement of content, some
related content is formatted into a separate area at the beginning of a
page where it is available to be read without immediately intruding on the
reader. The areas generated by this kind of fo:float are called
before-floats."
