Me: You can't place a figure at the top of a page with no text on
    either side unless you type a bunch of blank lines next to it.

Moriarty: Simple -- make the floating sidebar the width of the page,
          and place the graphic in the middle.

Ah!  That's what I *AM* doing.  The sidebar is as wide as it can be.
But blank lines are of zero width, so they fit next to the sidebar
anyway!  I want some space between the bottom of the figure and the
heading below it, but I can't put in any blank spaces there, because
they float up next to the sidebar.

This is a hack, anyway, since I want a frame around my 2x2 figure,
and needless to say, I only want a 2x2 frame...  I guess I could put
a framed sidebar inside an unframed one to get the effect.  This is
starting to remind me of TeX.

The problem really is the blank spaces floating into the zero-width
space next to the sidebar.  They shouldn't fit there, and it looks
really flaky and unintuitive when they do.
