Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-sizing-4] "scroll container" probably needs to be more precise. (#4635)

It's not possible, see https://drafts.csswg.org/css-overflow-3/#overflow-properties

Only the `visible` and `clip` values avoid a scroll container, and

> Computed value: as specified, except with `visible`/`clip` computing to `auto`/`hidden` (respectively) if one of `overflow-x` or `overflow-y` is neither `visible` nor `clip`.

The `overflow-x: auto` that you mention behaves as either `scroll` or `hidden`, both of which make a scroll container (even if there is no scrollbar, you can scroll with JS).
