Thanks a lot for your suggestion. It may well solve the first problem (putting everything at the end) but: 1. Does not help during the editing stage--I would like the figures to appear at their normal in-page locations then; 2. Even if the first float appears after the last text page, still small size floats will end up in one single page, because the \setcounter{totalnumber}{1} directive seems not working. Any suggestions?
