Assuming my question would be answered with yes by myself, here is a
workaround with using display:inline-block (based on an idea by Bruno
Fassino), comments included.

Allows for text-zoom and window resizing, I think, and wraps in multiple
rows(better than floats at least, but not without flaws).
Should work in IE5.5+, Opera8, Fx1.0.7-1.5RC3. Don't know what Opera9
offers or IE-Mac. Safari?

Someone corrected me, my intention was to say more something like
"devolved", not "derived". Sorry.
