Yes. pdfTeX <1.10a didnn't care for x and y; you only got a warning from the xpdf layer when y was greater than the y supported by xpdf. I want to get that behaviour back to be backwards-compatible. [...]
What happens, if there will be PDF 2.? some day?
Then we will need a major rewrite of pdfTeX anyway, as this will break almost any pdf consuming application anyway (see PDFRef H.1). Of course a float for x would be nice, but it's currently not needed and there is no code in pdfTeX yet to scan float parameters.
