Mark, you said "if there's a test that's explicitly checking that `my_fraction // my_float` returns something of type `int`, then the behaviour is clearly intentional". I see exactly that. See https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/bf63e8d55fd2853df3bb99d66de7f428107aadb3/Lib/test/test_fractions.py#L404  In fact, when I said I made floordiv return a float, and "changed one test to make sure that it works", it was that test. So maybe that means we should be more cautious about changing the behavior of floordiv, if we decide to change it.
