We would then have this
       <div>
           <div></div>
           <trailer><figure/></trailer>
       </div>

I'm not sure that makes sense. Is the figure in a trailer just because
it's at the end of the div? Or do we place <trailer> around it just to
make it valid? (Which as yet it isn't).

So, re-allow figure in trailer, yes, but why not where it used to be
allowed, immediately in <div>? If it can occur at the beginning, why not
at the end?
