Loirooriol has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts:

== [css-display] Parent box of run-in or non-principal box ==
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-3/#css-parent-box says

> The ***parent box*** of an element’s principal box is (except in the case of run-in) the principal box of its nearest ancestor element that generates a box.

Run-in boxes are described as an exception, but their "parent box" is not properly defined. Should be done in https://drafts.csswg.org/css-display-3/#run-in-layout. Intuitively it will be the "block box that does not establish a new block formatting context" to which the run-in sequence "is inserted as direct children".

And also the "parent box" of a non-principal box is not defined. In all cases it seems to be the principal box of the generating element.
