[csswg-drafts] [cssom-view] Spec declares that these terms are defined, but doesn't link to their definition: "Content edge, padding edge, border edge, margin edge, and viewport" (#3866)

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

== [cssom-view] Spec declares that these terms are defined, but doesn't link to their definition: "Content edge, padding edge, border edge, margin edge, and viewport" ==
The CSSOM spec has various mentions of the terms "[content,padding,border,margin] edge" and "viewport", e.g.:
> The clientWidth attribute must run these steps:
> [...]
> Return the width of the *padding edge* excluding the width of any rendered scrollbar between the padding edge and the *border edge*, [...]

These terms are pretty consistently linkified, but their link does not point to a definition -- it just points to this statement:

> Content edge, padding edge, border edge, margin edge, and viewport are defined by CSS.
https://drafts.csswg.org/cssom-view/#content-edge

There should be a link that points in the direction of an actual definition of these terms -- not just a statement saying they're defined.
