Re: feature request for sidebars

Hi.

Thanks for figuring this out.  The problem is that in this case
there is no way to directly give the table a title and anchor for cross
referencing from the main text except by wrapping it in @float.

I suppose that I could just make this particular sidebar a regular
subsection, but the general problem of tables and figures inside @cartouche
remains.

In any case, making this an explicit parse error would probably help.

Thanks!

Arnold
