Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-display] More precise box transformations

> @dbaron CSS2.1 defines the principal box as the box that “contains descendant boxes and generated content and is also the box involved in any positioning scheme”. https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#block-boxes CSS Display is just being consistent with that.

The version of that sentence in CSS 2.1 doesn't define principal boxes that way; it's just a description of principal block boxes.  The current CSS level 2 editor's draft does, though.  It's a pretty substantive edit that I'm not sure was intentional.
