Description
Bug description
A figure with layout .column-page may visually overlap with citations that are in the margin due to citation-location: margin.
I can work around the issue by placing the figure somewhere else in the text where there are just fewer citations in the margin.

## Data
__Police archives.__ The literature dismisses this source type as "biased", uninformative about the motives and organizers, uncomparable across regions, often unavailable or unobtainable, and because it is restricted to only registered demonstrations [@hutterProtestEventAnalysis2014; @wiedemannGeneralizedApproachProtest2022]. This criticism appears to me valid but overgeneralized, and there may well be regions where the advantages prevail over the problems. Especially for the goal of impact estimation, the avoidance of selection biases that are associated with newspaper articles [@hutterProtestEventAnalysis2014; @jamesozdenLiteratureReviewProtest2022] is a strong argument for using data from police and demonstration authorities.

Expected behavior
The positions of the figure and the citations should be coordinated in some way.
For example, move the citation further down in the margin, such that it is below the figure.
Actual behavior
They are not coordinated and simply overlap, see screenshot above.

Research direction
Start by rendering the supplied .qmd example with Quarto's PDF format and the shown citation-location and .column-page settings. Inspect the generated PDF and the rendering path responsible for placing margin citations and page-wide figures; done means the figure and citations no longer overlap and the expected positioning is coordinated.
