frivoal has just labeled a pull request from frivoal for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts as "Commenter Satisfied": == Establishing a new formatting context == As discussed in the resolution of #1457 we should add to css-display a linkable definition for establishing a (new) formatting context without explicitely saying which kind, and still have the right thing happen unambiguously when possible, while being explicit that it is a spec bug to invoke this definition in the cases where it's not meaningful/possible. This PR attempts to add this definition, and to update all the specs that should use it to do so. I am not particularly attached to the phrasing I am proposing here. I believe it to be correct, but certainly welcome more elegant ways of saying the same thing if anyone has suggestions. Review from @fantasai or @tabatkins (but particularly @fantasai) appreciated. Changes in css-contain css-multicol css-align and css-rhythm should be particularly safe, since this is just adding a link without rephrasing anything. Changes to the other specs are meant to be no-ops that merely unify the way we talk about this, without any normative effect. See https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/pull/2597
